    How do you solve for a compound’s percentage by


    mass? And what is mass percentage?

     Mass percent is used as a way of expressing a concentration or a way of


    describing a component in a mixture. For a solution, the mass percent is
    expressed as the grams of solute divided by the grams of solution, then
    multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.

     To calculate the mass percent of an element in a compound, we divide


    the mass of the element in 1 mole of the compound by the compound's
    molar mass and multiply the result by 100.

    General Formula of Percentage by mass

    Mass percent = (component’s mass


    ÷ total mass) x 100%
    or
    Percentage of mass = (solute’s
    mass ÷ mass of solution) x 100%
    Percentage by mass

    Mass percentage is one way of


    representing the concentration
    of an element in a compound
    or a component in a mixture.

    Sample #1

    Ordinary bleach is 5.25% NaOCl


    by mass, which means each 100 g
    of bleach contains 5.25 g NaOCl.

    Sample problem #2

    Find the mass percentage of 6 g sodium


    hydroxide dissolved in 50 g of water.
    (Note: since the density of water is nearly 1, this
    type of question often gives the volume of water in
    millilitres.)
    First find the total mass of the solution:
    total mass = 6 g sodium hydroxide + 50 g water
    total mass = 56 g

    Now, you can find the mass percentage of the sodium hydroxide
    using the formula:
    mass percent = (grams of solute / grams of solution) x 100
    mass percent = (6 g NaOH / 56 g solution) x 100
    mass percent = (0.1074) x 100
    answer = 10.74% NaOH

    Sample problem #3

    Find the masses of sodium chloride


    and water required to obtain 175 g of
    a 15% solution.
    Start with the usual equation and fill in the
    given information:
    mass percent = (grams solute / grams solution) x 100
    15% = (x grams sodium chloride / 175 g total) x 100

    Solving for x will give you the amount of NaCl:


    x = 15 x 175 / 100
    x = 26.25 grams NaCl
    So, now you know how much salt is needed. The solution consists
    of the sum of the amount of salt and water. Simply subtract the
    mass of salt from the solution to obtain the mass of water that is
    required:

    mass of water = total mass - mass of salt


    mass of water = 175 g - 26.25 g

    mass of water = 147.75 g

    Sample problem #4

    What is the mass percent of


    hydrogen in water?
    First, you need the formula for water, which is H2O. Next
    you look up the mass for 1 mole of hydrogen and oxygen
    (the atomic masses) using a periodic table.

    Hydrogen (H) mass = 1.008 grams per mole


    Oxygen (O) mass = 16.00 grams per mole
    Solution: mass percent = (mass of element in 1 mole of
    compound / mass of 1 mole of compound) x 100

    mass percent of H = [(2 x 1.008) / (2 x 1.008 + 16.00)] x 100


    mass percent of H = (2.016 / 18.016) x 100

    mass percentage of hydrogen in water = 11.19%
