Answer:

Mass fraction of Na = 0.3239

Mass fraction of S = 0.2254

Mass fraction of O = 0.4507

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the element as (Na2S04).

Atomic mass of Na = 23

Atomic mass of S = 32

Atomic mass of O = 16

Thus;

Molar mass of (Na2S04) = (23 × 2) + 32 + (16 × 4) = 142

Mass fraction of Na = (23 × 2)/142 = 0.3239

Mass fraction of S = 32/142 = 0.2254

Mass fraction of O = (16 × 4)/142 = 0.4507
