1) Calculate the percent composition of each element in ammonia (NH).



Sagot :

Answer:

[tex]\% N=82.2\% \\\\\% H=17.8\%[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since ammonia is NH₃, we can see nitrogen weights 14.01 g/mol and hydrogen 3.03 g/mol as there is one only nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms; thus, the total mass is 17.04 g/mol. In such a way, the percent composition of each element turns out to be:

[tex]\% N=\frac{14.01}{17.04}*100\%=82.2\% \\\\\% H=\frac{3.03}{17.04}*100\%=17.8\%[/tex]

Best regards!
