Question

What is the percent composition of hydrogen in NH4HCO3?

Answer 1

i hope this helps hydrogen in a compound =5 h atoms are present
therefore % of composition =5/79 *100 so it equals 6.3%

Answer 2

To find the Percent Composition of an atom, you use this formula:
Mass of element in the compound you're studying on ( in this case it's 5 since there is 5 Hydrogens) over the mass of the compound (which is here 79), Multiplied by 100 since you want a percent.
So we get:

`(5)/(79) * 100`
So you get about:

`0.063 * 100`

`6.3`

So, the percent composition of Hydrogen in NH4HCO3 is 6.3%

Hope this Helps! :D
