Answer:
[tex]\% Co=10.7\%[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since this is a mixture composed by cobalt and waste rock, we can compute the percent by mass of cobalt as shown below:
[tex]\% Co=\frac{m_{Co}}{m_{Co}+m_{waste}} *100\%\\\\[/tex]
Thus, we plug in to obtain:
[tex]\% Co=\frac{10.500000g}{10.500000g+87.3} *100\%\\\\\% Co=10.7\%[/tex]
Best regards!
