What is the percent by mass of C in benzene (C6H6)? The molecular weight of carbon is 12.0107 g/mol and of hydrogen 1.00794 g/mol

92.26% of C

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must assume we have 1 mole of benzene. The mole contains 6 moles of C and 6 moles of H. We have to convert these moles to grams in order to find the total mass and mass percent will be:

Mass atom / Total mass * 100

Mass C: 6mol C * (12.0107g / mol) = 72.0642g

Mass H: 6mol H * (1.00794g / mol) = 6.04764g

total mass: 72.0642g + 6.04764g = 78.11184g

Mass percent of C will be:

72.0642g C / 78.11184g* 100

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
