Answer: Percentage Compositon Of A in the sample= 28.99%
Explanation:
First we calculate the Peak area.
Because each peak is consdered like a triangle in a Chromatogram, The Area of the peak is calculated as = height x half height of the width
Area of Pea A= 25.1 mm X 4.6mm=115.46mm2
Area of Peak B= 14.5mm x 4.4mm=63.8mm2
Area of PeaK C= 37.1mm x5.9mm =218.89mm2
Total Peak Area= 398.15mm2
Percentage Area of Peak A = Area of Peak A/Total Peak Area x 100
= 115.46 / 398.15 x 100
=0.2899 x 100
=28.99%
Percentage Compositon Of A = 28.99%
