HOPTON PERCENTAGE COMPOSITION

HOPTON It can be quite useful to know how much of an element is present in a compound. This is not how many atoms there are BUT what mass is present. This has some relevance when considering how much metal is in a particular ore.

However only 120g are produced. The fraction produced is 120/160 = ¾ (0.75). YIELD AND PERCENTAGE YIELD HOPTON
