We can calculate the mass percent of an element by dividing its atomic mass by the mass of the compound and then multiply by 100:
% by mass of element = (mass of element/mass of compound) x100%
Impurities like n-eicosane with the molecular formula C20H42 could account for the low percent by mass of oxygen in the sample because it has a zero percent oxygen based on its compound formula which indicates that it does not have the element oxygen.
Answer:
20% of phosphorus
Explanation:
A fertilizer is used to improve the fertility of soils. Most fertilizers contains the element nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
They are often designated NPK fertilizers.
Now we know that the numbers 10-20-20 depicts the nitrogen-phosphorus and potassium content of the fertilizer.
From the designation,
The actual percentage is 20% of phosphorus.
10% of nitrogen
20% of potassium

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is given that mass of Mg is 97.22 g and it is known that molar mass of Mg is 24.305 g/mol.
So, calculate the number of moles as follows.
No. of moles = 
=
= 4 mol
Also, it is known that 1 mole has
atoms/mol. Therefore, calculate the number of atoms in 4 mol as follows.

=
atoms
or, =
atoms
Thus, we can conclude that there are
atoms in 97.22 grams of Mg.
