Question

What is the mass percent of carbon in carbon di oxide ? Give the solution

Answer 1

Answer:

27.27%

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is CO₂

Total mass of CO₂=mass of 1 carbon atom+mass of 1 oxygen molecule

                             =12+(2×16)

                             =44 (consider it atomic mass unit or grams;ur choice)

Mass percent of carbon=12/44 × 100

                                       =27.27%
