AI Generated Solution

To calculate the percentage of carbon in urea (with the formula \( \text{CON}_2\text{H}_4 \)), follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the molecular mass of urea First, we need to calculate the total molecular mass of urea by adding the atomic masses of each element in the formula. - Carbon (C): 1 atom × 12 g/mol = 12 g/mol - Oxygen (O): 1 atom × 16 g/mol = 16 g/mol - Nitrogen (N): 2 atoms × 14 g/mol = 28 g/mol (since there are 2 nitrogen atoms) ...
