What is the percent composition of nitrogen in a 2.57 g sample of Al(NO3)3?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

19.8% of Nitrogen

Explanation:

In the Al(NO₃)₃ there are:

1 atom of Al

3 atoms of N

And 9 atoms of O

The molar mass of Al(NO₃)₃ is:

1 Al * (26.98g/mol) = 26.98g/mol

3 N * (14g/mol) = 42g/mol

9 O * (16g/mol) = 144g/mol

26.98 + 42 + 144 = 212.98g/mol

We can do a conversion using these molar masses to find the mass of nitrogen is the sample, that is:

2.57g * (42g/mol / 212.98g/mol) =

0.51g N

Percent composition of nitrogen is:

0.51g N / 2.57g * 100

= 19.8% of Nitrogen
