Calculate the mass precentage composition of magnesium sulphate [given the atomic masses `Mg = 24, S = 32 and O = 16]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Molecular formula `: Mg SO _(4)` Gram molecular mass = 120 g
Mass percentage of `Mg = ( 24)/(120) xx 100 - 20.00`
Mass percentage of `S = (32)/(120) xx 100 = 26.66`
Mass percentage of `O = ( 64)/(120) xx 100 = 53. 33`
