Percent CompositionPercent Composition
The percent by mass of an element in a The percent by mass of an element in a compound is the number of grams of the compound is the number of grams of the element divided by the mass in grams of the element divided by the mass in grams of the compound multiplied by 100%.compound multiplied by 100%.
% Mass of element = mass of element/mass of % Mass of element = mass of element/mass of compound x 100%compound x 100%
% Mass = mass of element in 1 mol compound % Mass = mass of element in 1 mol compound / molar mass of compound x 100%/ molar mass of compound x 100%
