A student was provided with a solid sample made up of a mixture of components. Prior to separation, the student measured 2.895 g of the mixture. After separation, the student found the mixture contained the following four components: Component 1: 1.12g
Component 2: 0.756g
Component 3: 0.254g
Component 4: 0.525g

Which component has the highest mass % for the mixture?

Component 1, since it has the greatest mass.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering that the by-mass percent of a substance is computed:

In such a way, given the form of the equation one could infer that the higher the mass of the i component, the higher its by-mass percent, it means that the component with the greatest mass will have the highest by-mass percent for the mixture. In such a way, since the component 1 was found to have a mass of 1.12 g, it will have the highest by-mass percent.

Best regards.

can you attach a picture of the lettuce? : )

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
