Determine the percent composition of potassium dichromate, k2cr2o7.

a) 17.5% k, 46.6% cr, 35.9%
b) 29.8% k, 39.7% cr, 30.5%
c) 36.5% k, 48.6% cr, 14.9%
d) 37.2% k, 24.7% cr, 38.1%
e) none of these choices are correct.

Option E is the correct one

Explanation:

K₂Cr₂O₇ → Potassium dichromate

A ionic salt which its molar mass is 294.18 g/m

It is composed by 2 mol of K, 2 mol of Cr and 7 mol of O

2 mol of K = 78.2 g

2 mol of Cr = 104 g

7 mol of O = 112 g

In 294.2 g of compound we have __78.2 g K __ 104 g Cr ___ 112 g O

Let's calculate the percent

(78.2 / 294.2) .100 = 26.59% K

(104 / 294.2) .100 = 35.35% Cr

(112 / 294.2) . 100 = 38.06 % O
