    The molecular formula for mustard gas is C₄H₈SCl₂

    the molecular mass of mustard gas - 159.09 g/mol

    atomic mass of H is 1 g/mol

    The mass of H in 1 mol of compound - 1 x 8 = 8 g

    this means that in 159.09 g of compound, 8 g of H present

    mass percentage of hydrogen = 8 g / 159.09 g x 100%

    mass percentage of hydrogen = 5.03%
