What is the percentage composition of soap (C12H35COON) ?

Carbon percentage 65.8% Hydrogen percentage 14.9% Oxygen percentage 13.4% Nitrogen percentage 5.9%

Explanation:

The molar mass of C12H35COON is 237.41g/mol

Carbon percentage composition = (12.01*13) / 237.41 * 100 = 65.8%

Hydrogen percentage composition = (1.008*35) / 237.41 * 100 = 14.9%

Oxygen percentage composition = (15.99*2) / 237.41 * 100 = 13.4%

Nitrogen percentage composition = (14.007) / 237.41 * 100 = 5.9%
