Answer 2

5.85g of a compound contains 3.55g of chlorine and 2.30g of sodium. The mass percentage of sodium and chlorine in the compound will be  39.4% and 60.6% respectively.

Given:

Total mass = 5.85g

Mass of Chlorine = 3.55g

Mass of Sodium = 2.30g

To find:

Mass percentage of Sodium and Chlorine.

Formula to be used:

Mass Percentage = $[\frac{Mass of Solute}{Total mass}]$ ×100.

Chlorine = $\frac{3.55}{5.85}$ × 100 = 60.6%

Sodium = $\frac{2.3}{5.85}$ × 100 = 39.4%

Therefore, the mass percentage of sodium and chlorine in the compound will be 39.4% and 60.6% respectively.
