AnSwer :-

Molecular formula of methanol is ⠀⠀⠀⠀ CH_3OH

Molecular mass of methanol

= 1 × 12.01 + 4 × 1.008 + 1 × 16.0

= 32.042 gm.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

 \sf percent \: composition \: of \: carbon

 \sf =  \frac{mass \: of \: carbon \times 100}{molecular \: mass \: of \: CH _{3}OH }  \\

 \sf =  \frac{12.01}{32.04}  \times 100 = 37.48\% \\

Thus, the percent composition of carbon is 37.48% .

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

 \sf percent \: composition \: of \: hydrogen

\sf =  \frac{mass \:of \: hydrogen }{molecular \: mass \: of \: CH_{3}OH}  \\

 \sf =  \frac{4.032}{32.042}  \times 100 = 12.5\% \\

Thus, the percent composition of Hydrogen is 12.5%.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

 \sf percent \: composition \: of \: oxygen

\sf =  \frac{16 \times 100}{32.4}  = 49.93\% \\

thus, the percent composition of oxygen is 49.93% .
