How is the mass percent of elements in a compound different for a 1.0-g sample versus a 100.-g sample versus a 1-mole sample of the compound?
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The difference if any in the mass percent for
Concept introduction: Mass percent is the percentage concentration of components in a mixture. It is also defined as percentage ratio of mass of the element in one mole of compound to the mass of one mole of compound.
To determine: The change if any in the mass percent for
Explanation of Solution
In any compound, ratio of elements is always fixed. Hence, mass percent of element does not change for any amount of sample.
For example, if a
