Answer:
The percent composition for nitrogen in chromium(III) nitrate is 6%.
Explanation:
The mass percent of nitrogen in chromium(III) nitrate is 17.655%.
Calculation,
Molar mass of one oxygen = 16 g
molar mass of nine oxygen = 9 × 16 g = 144 g
molar mass of one nitrogen atom = 14 g
molar mass of three nitrogen atom = 3 × 14 g = 42 g
molar mass of one chromium atom = 51.99 g
molar mass of chromium (III) nitrate molecule = 144 g + 42 g + 51.99 g = 237.99 g
Mass percent of nitrogen = mass of three nitrogen atom× 100 /mass of chromium(III)nitrate
Mass percent of nitrogen = 42 g/237.99 g × 100 = 17.655%
The percentage of the mass of the element or solute divided by the mass of the compound or solute is called mass percentage
