What is the percent composition by mass of sulfur in the compound mgso4 (molecular mass = 120 g/mol)?.



Answer :

percent composition of MgSO4 is 26.64%

What is percent composition?

The mass percentage of each element in a compound is indicated by its percent composition. The fusion of two or more elements results in a chemical product. If you are researching a chemical compound, you might be interested in learning what percentage of that compound contains a particular element. (Mass of Element/Molecular Mass) x 100 is the formula for percent composition.

Using the mass of Sulphur in the combination, we must determine the percent composition of MgSO4 from this.

Percent composition of MgSO4= molar mass of Sulfur ×number of sulfur atoms/ molar mass of Sulfur ×100

                 =32.07g/mol×1÷120.38g/mol×100=26.64%
