PERCENT COMPOSITION

PERCENT COMPOSITION. The percent composition is the mass percentage of each type of atom(element) in a compound . % X = (total atomic mass of X / molar mass which contains X) For Example: Calculate the percent composition of nicotine, C 10 H 14 N 2 . Molar mass = 10C + 14H + 2N = 162 g/mol

  1. PERCENT COMPOSITION • The percent composition is the mass percentage of each type of atom(element) in a compound. % X = (total atomic mass of X / molar mass which contains X) For Example: Calculate the percent composition of nicotine, C10H14N2. • Molar mass = 10C + 14H + 2N = 162 g/mol • %C = (10C / C10H14N2)100 = (120 g/mol /162 g/mol)100=74.1% • %H = (14H / C10H14N2)100 = (14 g/mol / 162 g/mol)100 = 8.6% • %N = (2 N / C10H14N2)100 = (28 g/mol / 162 g/mol)100 = 17.3%

  2. PERCENT COMPOSITION • The percent composition can also be calculated from experimental data. % X = (total mass of X / total mass of compound) A student prepares a compound of tungsten chloride from 3.946 g of tungsten and 3.806 g of chlorine. Assuming the reaction goes to completion, calculate the percent composition. • According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, 3.946 g of W combines with 3.806 g of Cl to give 7.752 g of compound. • %W = (mass W / mass WxCly )100 = (3.946 g / 7.752 g)100 = 50.9% • %Cl = (Cl / WxCly )100 = (3.806g / 7.752 g)100 = 49.1%

  3. PERCENT COMPOSITION WORD PROBLEMS Q. How many grams of lithium will combine with 20.0 g of sulfur to form Li2S? • Molar mass of Li2S = 2Li + S = 2(6.94 g/mol) + 32.06 g/mol =45.94 g/mol • % composition of Li in Li2S = (mass of Li/molar mass)100 = (13.88 g/mol / 45.94 g/mol) 100 = 30.2% • % composition of S in Li2S = 100% - 30.2% =69.8% • A ratio can now be established: 20.0 g S = 69.8% x = (30.2%) (20.0 g)x = 8.65 g x g Li 30.2% 69.8%
