Question
What is the mass percentage of nitrogen in NH₄NO₃? (Atomic masses: N = 14, H = 1, O = 16)
Explanation
Given:
What is the mass percentage of nitrogen in NH₄NO₃? (Atomic masses: N = 14, H = 1, O = 16)
Formula:
Molar mass = (2 × 14) + (4 × 1) + (3 × 16) = 28 + 4 + 48 = 80 g/mol.
Substitution & Calculation:
Mass of N = 28 g. % N = (28 / 80) × 100 = 35%.
Final Result:
The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per latest NCERT 2026-27.
