A mixture of KCl and KNO3 is 44.20 percent potassium by mass the percentage of kcl in the mixture is?

To find the percentage of KCl in the mixture, we first need to determine the percentage of potassium coming from KCl. Since the mixture is 44.20% potassium by mass and KCl is 74.55% potassium by mass, we can set up a simple ratio to find the percentage of KCl in the mixture as (74.55% / 100%) * 44.20% = 32.97%. Therefore, the percentage of KCl in the mixture is approximately 32.97%.
