Answer:

The percentage of mass of hydrogen in aspirin is 4.48%

The percentage of mass of carbon in aspirin is 60%

The percentage of mass of oxygen in aspirin is 35.5%

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sample of aspirin = 134.50 g

Mass of hydrogen = 6.03 g

Mass of carbon = 80.70 g

Mass of oxygen = 47.77 g

We need to calculate the percentage of mass of hydrogen in aspirin

Using formula for percentage of mass

\text{percentage of mass of hydrogen}=\dfrac{m_{h}}{m_{s}}\times100percentage of mass of hydrogen=

m

s

m

h

×100

Put the value into the formula

\text{percentage of mass of hydrogen}=\dfrac{6.03}{134.50}\times100percentage of mass of hydrogen=

134.50

6.03

×100

\text{percentage of mass of hydrogen}=4.48\%percentage of mass of hydrogen=4.48%

We need to calculate the percentage of mass of carbon in aspirin

Using formula for percentage of mass

\text{percentage of mass of carbon}=\dfrac{m_{c}}{m_{s}}\times100percentage of mass of carbon=

m

s

m

c

×100

Put the value into the formula

\text{percentage of mass of carbon}=\dfrac{80.70}{134.50}\times100percentage of mass of carbon=

134.50

80.70

×100

\text{percentage of mass of carbon}=60\%percentage of mass of carbon=60%

We need to calculate the percentage of mass of oxygen in aspirin

Using formula for percentage of mass

\text{percentage of mass of oxygen}=\dfrac{m_{o}}{m_{s}}\times100percentage of mass of oxygen=

m

s

m

o

×100

Put the value into the formula

\text{percentage of mass of oxygen}=\dfrac{47.77}{134.50}\times100percentage of mass of oxygen=

134.50

47.77

×100

\text{percentage of mass of oxygen}=35.5\%percentage of mass of oxygen=35.5%

Hence, The percentage of mass of hydrogen in aspirin is 4.48%

The percentage of mass of carbon in aspirin is 60%

The percentage of mass of oxygen in aspirin is 35.5%

Given: A 134.50 g sample of aspirin is made up of 6.03 g of hydrogen, 80.70 g of carbon, and 47.77 g of oxygen.

To find: Percent by mass of each element in aspirin

Explanation: The formula for percentage mass of an element is:

Mass of the element * 100 / Total mass

Total mass of compound= 134.5 g

Mass of hydrogen present= 6.03 g

Mass percentage of hydrogen

= Mass of hydrogen* 100 / Total mass

= 6.03 * 100 / 134.5

= 603/134.5

= 4.48 %

Mass of carbon present= 80.70 g

Mass percentage of carbon

= Mass of carbon* 100 / Total mass

= 80.70 * 100 / 134.5

= 8070/134.5

= 60%

Mass of oxygen present= 47.77 g

Mass percentage of oxygen

= Mass of oxygen* 100 / Total mass

= 47.77 * 100 / 134.5

= 4777/134.5

= 35.52%

Therefore, the mass percentage of hydrogen, carbon and oxygen are 4.48%, 60% and 35.52% respectively.
