Answer: The percentage composition of hydrogen in the given compound is 15%.
Explanation:
To calculate the percentage composition of hydrogen in a compound, we use the formula:
[tex]\%\text{ composition of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100[/tex]
Where,
Mass of hydrogen = 41.4 grams
Mass of compound = 276 grams
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\%\text{ composition of hydrogen}=\frac{41.4g}{276}{\times 100[/tex]
Percentage composition of hydrogen in a given compound = 15%
