100(23.9/30.3) = 78.9 % Ni, to the justified number of significant digits.
100(6.4/30.3) = 21 % O, to the justified number of significant digits.
Fewer significant digits are given for the oxygen percentage because one of its input data, 6.4, has only two significant digits.

Why cant mass used as a property to identify a sample of matter?
Mass is an extensive property, which depends only on the amount of matter in the sample, not on the composition of the sample.
Percent composition is expressed as a percent by?
Percent composition is usually expressed as a percent by mass, but in the case of gases and vapors, it is often expressed as a percent by volume.

A one gram sample of aspirin contains 75.2 percent by mass of C9H8O4 How many moles of acetylsalicylic acid are in the sample?
There are 0.752 g of acetylsalicylic acid. The FW (formula weight) of aspirin is ~180 g/mol. moles = mass/FW.
What three types of information are needed on order to find an empirical formula from percentage composition data?
· Assume that you have 100.0 g sample of the compound · Calculate the amount of each element in the sample · Convert the mass composition of each element to a composition in moles by dividing by the appropriate molar mass

What quantity serves as the conversion factor between the mass of a sample and how many moles the sample contains?
The quantity that serves as a conversion factor between mass and number of moles is the molecular mass.
What is measured by how much matter it contains?
Mass measures the amount of matter in a sample.
