calculation percentage composition of nitrogen and carbon in urea nh2conh2
Answers
Answer:
The percentage of Nitrogen in urea is 46.7%.
Explanation:
The chemical formula of urea is NH2-CO-NH2.
Here the molar mass of:
N=14u
C=12u
O=16u
H=1u
Molar mass of NH2-CO-NH2=(2X14)+12+16+(4X1)=60
Mass % of N=(Mass of N in urea/Total mass)X100
=(28/60)X100
=46.7%
Answer:
Percentage of Carbon: 20%
Percentage of Nitrogen: 46.67%
Explanation:
Firstly, we calculate the molecular mass of Urea, .
= (Atomic masses: Nitrogen = 14; Hydrogen = 1; Carbon = 12 Oxygen = 16)
= 14 + 2(1) + 12 + 16 + 14 + 2(1)
= 60.
We have found the Molecular Mass of Urea
Now, we need, percentage of (i) Carbon, and (ii) Nitrogen.
(i) Carbon = × 100 = 20%
(ii) Nitrogen = × 100 = 46.67%
The Percentage of Carbon: 20%,
The Percentage of Nitrogen: 46.67%
