Calculate the percentage by mass of nitrogen in an ammonia molecule (NH​​​​​​​3) . Take the relative atomic masses of hydrogen and nitrogen to be 1 and 14 respectively.

Calculating the mass of 1 molecule of ammonia: Mass = ( Number of hydrogen atoms x Mass of hydrogen atom) + ( Number of nitrogen atoms x Mass of nitrogen atoms) Mass = ( 3 x 1 ) + ( 1 x 14) = 17 Calculating ...
