Question

Find the total percentage of oxygen in magnesium nitrate crystal Mg(NO₃)₂·6H₂O.
[H = 1, N = 14, O = 16, Mg = 24]

Open in App

Solution

Mass of oxygen present in magnesium nitrate crystal = [(6 $\times$ 16) + (6 $\times$ 16)] g = 192 g
Molecular mass of Mg(NO₃)₂·6H₂O = [24 + 2 (14+48) + 6 (18)] g = 256 g
$Percentage of O = \frac{Mass of O in compound}{Molecular mass of Mg ({NO}_{3})_{2} . 6 H_{2} O} \times 100 = \frac{192}{256} \times 100 = 75 %$
