Solution

To find the mass percent of an element in a compound, you need to know the molar mass of the element and the molar mass of the compound.

Step 1: Find the molar mass of Na (Sodium) and Na2CO3 (Sodium carbonate).

The molar mass of Sodium (Na) is approximately 23 g/mol.

The molar mass of Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is calculated as follows: (223 [for 2 Na]) + 12 [for C] + (316 [for 3 O]) = 46 + 12 + 48 = 106 g/mol.

Step 2: Calculate the mass percent of Sodium (Na) in Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3).

The formula to calculate the mass percent is: (Mass of element/Molar mass of compound) * 100%

So, the mass percent of Sodium in Sodium carbonate is: (46/106)*100% = 43.4%

So, the correct answer is b) 43.4%.
