Determine the % composition of ammonium nitrate: NH4NO3
precent composition i think. What i typed is the question(this time no typos)
can you tell molecular weigh of NH4NO3
80.052
how many diffrernt elements are present in NH4NO3 can you tell
4
what are those ??
N - nitrogen H4 - hydrogen N - nitrogen O3 - oxygen
can you tell the atomic mass of N, O and H
14.007 - N 15.999 - O 1.008 - H
now in 80 gram of NH4NO3 you have 2*14 gramof N right then for 100 gram =2*14*100 /80=
can you calculate this similarly do for the O and H too
2 x 14 x 100 / 80 = 35 2 x 16 x 100 / 80 = 40 2 x 1 x 100 / 80 = 2.5
you should not take 2 for all that is 3 for O and 4 for hydrogen :)
oh so 2 x 14 x 100 / 80 = 35 3 x 16 x 100 / 80 = 60 4 x 1 x 100 / 80 = 5
yaaa now total is 100 % right the compostion of NH4 NO# is 35 % N ,60% O and 5 % H
