How to Calculate and Solve for Weight Percent for Alloys | Imperfection in Solids

The image above represents weight percent for alloys. To calculate weight percent for alloys, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Mass of Metal 1 (m1) and Mass of Metal 2 (m2).

The formula for calculating the weight percent for alloys:

C1 = 100(m1/(m1 + m2))

Where:

C1 = Weight Percent for Alloys
m1 = Mass of Metal 1
m2 = Mass of Metal 2

Given an example;
Find the weight percent for alloys when the mass of metal 1 is 12 and the mass of metal 2 is 4.

This implies that;

m1 = Mass of Metal 1 = 12
m2 = Mass of Metal 2 = 4

C1 = 100(m1/(m1 + m2))
C1 = 100(12/(12 + 4))
That is, C1 = 100(12/(16))
C1 = 100(0.75)
C1 = 75

Therefore, the weight percent for alloys is 75%.
