Chapter 3: Q 35E (page 169)

Question-Determine the percent ammonia (NH3) in Co (NH3)6Cl3 to three significant figures.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The percent ammonia in Co (NH3)6Cl3 is 38.2%.

Step by step solution

01

Determine the mass

Mass of ammonia = 6x17g = 102g

Mass of Co(NH3)6Cl3 = 267g

02

Determine percent of ammonia

Percent ammonia = (mass of ammonia/mass of molecule) x 100

= (102/267) x 100

= 38.2%
