Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\text{10.29 g H and 81.71 g O}}[/tex]
Explanation:
The formula of water is H₂O.
1. Calculate the molar mass of water
2 H = 2 × 1.008 = 2.016 u
1 O = 1 × 16.00 = 16.00 u
MM = 18.02 u
2. Mass of hydrogen
\text{Mass of H} = \text{92.0 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{2.016 g H}}{\text{18.02 g water }} = \textbf{10.29 g[tex]\text{Mass of H} = \text{92.0 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{2.016 g H}}{\text{18.02 g water }} = \textbf{10.29 g H}[/tex] H}
3. Mass of 0xygen
[tex]\text{Mass of O} = \text{92.0 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{16.00 g H}}{\text{18.02 g water }} = \textbf{81.71 g O}\\\\\text{The masses are } \boxed{\textbf{10.29 g H and 81.71 g O}}[/tex]
