What is the general formula for the computation of percentage composition of the given element?
% mass of element = mass of element in the compound divided by mass of the compound times 100
% mass of element = mass of element in the compound divided by mass of the compound
% mass of element = mass of element in the compound divided by 100
% mass of element = mass of element in the compound
