$\bf{\underline{\underline{Question:-}}}}$

What is the MASS % of carbon in carbon dioxide ?

$\bf{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}$

The mass % of carbon in carbon dioxide is 27.27%.

$\bf{\underline{\underline{Calculation:-}}}}$

The MOLECULAR formula for carbon dioxide is CO2.

The molecular mass of carbon dioxide is 12+2×16

=44g/mol.

Mass % of carbon in carbon dioxide is =

$\frac{12}{44} \times 100$

= 27.27 %

Formula used here :-

Mass PERCENT = Mass of Solute / Mass of SOLUTION × 100
