Calculate the mass percentage of benzene (C6H6) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) if 22 g of benzene is dissolved in 122 g of carbon tetrachloride.

Answered by admin @



Hey there!

----------

Answer :

Given that,

Mass of benzene  (C_{6} H_{6}) = 22 g

Mass of carbon tetrachloride  (CCl_{4}) = 122 g

Mass of solution dissolved = 22 g + 122 g = 144 g

Then, we have to find,

Mass percentage of benzene = ?

Mass percentage of carbon tetrachloride = ?

Now, using the formula,

Mass percentage of benzene =  \frac{ \text{Mass of benzene} }{ \text{Mass of benzene + Mass of carbon tetrachloride} } × 100

⇒ Mass percentage of benzene =  \frac{22}{22 + 122}  × 100

 \frac{22}{144}  × 100

 \frac{11}{72} × 100

 \frac{1100}{72}  = 15.2%

Mass percentage of benzene = 15.2%

Mass percentage of  CCl_{4}  = 100 -15.2% = 84.8%

Mass percentage of  CCl_{4}  = 84.8%
