Answer:
6.7%
Explanation:
The formula of the compound is given as:
C₆ H₁₂ O₆
The problem here is to find the percent composition of hydrogen.
First;
Find the molar mass of C₆ H₁₂ O₆ = 6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16) = 180g/mol
Secondly;
Percentage composition of H = [tex]\frac{molar mass of H}{Molar mass of compound}[/tex] x 100
Percentage composition of H = [tex]\frac{12(1)}{180}[/tex] x 100 = 6.7%
