Answer:
[tex]\% Cu=45.2\%\\\\\% Zn=53.6\%\\\\\% Pb=1.2\%[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, given the masses of copper, zinc and lead, it is possible to compute the moles via their atomic masses first:
[tex]n_{Cu}=\frac{91.0gCu}{63.55g/mol}=1.432mol\\\\ n_{Zn}=\frac{111gZn}{65.41g/mol}=1.697mol\\\\n_{Pb}=\frac{7.51gPb}{207.2g/mol}=0.0362mol\\[/tex]
Now, we compute the atomic percentages as shown below:
[tex]\% Cu=\frac{1.432}{1.432+1.697+0.0362}*100\% =45.2\%\\\\\% Zn=\frac{1.697}{1.432+1.697+0.0362}*100\%=53.6\%\\\\\% Pb=\frac{0.0362}{1.432+1.697+0.0362}*100\%=1.2\%[/tex]
Best regards!
