Explanation:
Calculate the mass of 1 mole of malachite:
MM Cu = 63.55
MM O = 16.00
MM H = 1.01
MM C = 12.01
A mole of malachite has:
2 moles of Cu
5 moles of O
2 moles of H
1 mole of C
MW Malachite = 2*MM(CU) + 5*MM(O) + 2*MM(H) + 1 *MM(C)
MW Malachite = 2*63.55 + 5*16.00 + 2*1.01 + 1*12.01
MW Malachite = 221.13
Mass of Cu in a mole of Malachite = 2*MM(CU) = 127.1
Now divide the mass of Cu by the mass of Malachite
