In a pure compound, the mass ratio A:B is 1:7 and the total mass is 40 grams. What is the mass of B?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 35 grams

The governing idea is the law of definite proportions: a pure compound contains its constituents in a fixed mass ratio. The ratio 1:7 means the whole sample has 1 + 7 = 8 equal mass parts. Since 8 parts weigh 40 g, one part weighs 40 ÷ 8 = 5 g. Element or constituent B occupies 7 parts, so its mass is 7 × 5 = 35 g. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A gives only one part, option C incorrectly treats the entire sample as B, and option D is greater than the stated total mass, so it cannot be possible. No molecular mass or mole conversion is required here; only the given mass ratio must be applied.
