Calculate the mass percent of carbon (c) in carbon tetrachloride, (ccl4), if the molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.8g.

The mass percent of carbon in carbon tetrachloride is 7.8 %.

Explanation:

In , there are 1 carbon atoms and 4 chlorine atoms.

To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

Mass of carbon = 12 g

Mass of carbon tetrachloride = 153.8 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the mass percent of carbon in carbon tetrachloride is 7.8 %.
