Answer:

●This is the total weight of CO2. Now, to know the percent composition of Carbon and Oxygen .We will divide their weight with the total weight of CO2. % C = 12.01/44.01 = 0.2729= 27.29% (we will divide 0.2729 with 100 to take the percentage). % O = 32.00/44.01 =0.7271 =72.71 %O in CO2.

Answer:

27.3 %

Explanation:

mass of carbon dioxide = 12+16+16=44 gm

mass of carbon = 12 gm

mass % of carbon in carbon dioxide = (12/44) x 100

=(3/11) x 100

= 0.279 x 100

= 27.9 %
