Answer:
Name of compound: monosodium glutamate
The chemical formula: C₅H₈NO₄Na
Elements present are:
Carbon (C)
Hydrogen (H)
Nitrogen (N)
Oxygen ( O)
Sodium (Na)
To compute for the percentage composition of elements, find the formula mass first.
C 5 x 12 = 60
H 8 x 1 = 8
N 1 x 14 = 14
O 4 x 16 = 64
Na 1 x 23 = 23
169 => formula mass
% C = 60/169x100 =35.5%
% H = 8/169 x 100 = 4.7%
% N = 14/169 x 100 = 8.2%
% O = 64/169 x 100 = 37.8%
% Na = 23/169 x 200 = 13.6%
