Chrysocolla is a copper mineral that contains .016 % silicon. What is the mass of silicon present in 1.5kg of this mineral

 .24 mg

Explanation:

The mineral contains .016 % silicon

mass of the mineral = 1.5 kg

mass of silicon = 1.5 x .016 %

= 1.5 x .016 / 100

= 24 x 10⁻⁵ kg

= 24 x 10⁻² mg

= .24 mg .

the electron configuration that you gave me has 16 electrons ergo it has 16 protons ergo it is the element sulfur.
