Gun power contains 75% nitre 15% charcoal and the rest sulphur. find the the amount of sulphur in in 9 kilogram of gunpowder.plz answer with explanation..​

Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of gunpowder =8 kg=8000 g ....[WKT 1 kg=1000 g]

Quantity of NITRE in gunpowder =75% of 8000 g

=(75/100)×(8000)

=(75×80)

=6000 g=6 kg

Quantity of SULPHUR in gunpowder =10% of 8000 g

=(10/100)×8000

=(10×80)

=800 g=0.8 kg

The quantity of CHARCOAL in gunpowder =[8000−(6000+800)]

=[8000−6800]

=1200 g

=1.2 kg

∴ the quantity of charcoal in 8 kg of gunpowder is 1.2 kg
