Plleaseeee help! THANK YOUU A mixture of sodium chloride, ammonium chloride and sand was subjected to a separation much like the one you did in lab. If a 3.5543 g mixture was separated to isolate 2.1035g of sodium chloride, and 0.2904g of sand, what is the percentage of sodium chloride and sand in the mixture? (Be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its just finding the percentage, I just don't know how to do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

If the percentages meant are mass percentages, there's no chemistry here, just a little math. 0.2904 g/3.5543 g = 8.17% is the percentage of sand 2.1035 g/3.5543 g = 59.18% is the percentage of sodium chloride 100% - (8.17%+59.18%) = 32.65% is the percentage of ammonium chloride hope this helps
