Bauxite is an ore that contains the element aluminum. If you obtained 108 grams of aluminum from an ore sample that initially weighed 204 grams, what is the mass percent of aluminum in this bauxite ore

53% aluminium is present.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of aluminium in bauxite = 108 g

Total mass of sample = 204 g

Percentage of aluminium = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percentage = Mass of aluminium / total mass of sample× 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percentage = 108 g/204 × 100

Percentage = 0.53  × 100

Percentage = 53%

So in given 204 g of bauxite there is 53% aluminium is present.
