Answer 2

Answer:

Hi there! Here is your answer mate!

0.9kg is the amount of sulphur.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question

Amount of Nitre = 75%

Amount of Charcoal = 15%

Total Amount percentage covered by Nitre and Charcoal = 75% + 15%

= 90%

Amount percentage of Sulphur = 100% - 90%

= 10%

Amount percentage of Sulphur = 10%

Total Amount in kilogramme = 9kg

Amount of Sulphur = 10% of 9kg

$= \frac{10}{100} \times 9 \\ = \frac{90}{100} \\ = 0.9kg$

Therefore,

Amount of Sulphur in 9kg of Gunpowder is 0.9kg.
