Best Answer

You need the atomic masses of P and of F.

P ----> M = 30.97 g/mol

F-----> M = 19.00 g/mol

PF4 ----> M = ( 30.97 ) + ( 4 ) ( 19.00 ) = 106.97 g/mol

mass % P = [ ( 30.97 ) / ( 106.97 ) ] [ 100 ] = 28.95 mass % P<--------

mass % F = [ ( 76.00 ) / ( 106.97 ) ] [ 100 ] = 71.05 mass % F <----------

CCl4

Cl4 = 35.5 x 4 = 142 C= 12 142 + 12 = 154 so 12/154 x 100

= 7.79% two decimals
