    Percentage of cation in ammonium dichromate \[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\] is

    A) \[41.29%\]                         

    B)        \[14.29%\]

    C)        \[20.29%\]                         

    D)         None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Percentage of the element or constituent no. of parts by mass                 \[=\frac{the\,\,element\,\,or\,\,constituent}{mol.\,\,mass\,\,of\,\,the\,\,compound}\times 100\] Molecular formula of ammonium dichromate is\[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\] mol. mass of\[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\] \[=2\times (14+4)+2\times 52\times 7\times 16=252\] No. of parts by mass of cation\[viz\,\,NH_{4}^{+}\]                 \[=2\times (14+4)=36\] \[\therefore \]  % of\[NH_{4}^{+}=\frac{36}{252}\times 100\] \[=14.29%\]
