**Finding the Mass of Potassium in Potassium Hydroxide****Problem Statement:**To find the mass of potassium in 5.6 g of potassium hydroxide (KOH) by dimensional analysis, which of the following conversion factors should be used? Potassium hydroxide is 69.7% potassium by mass.**Options:**- $ \frac{5.6 \text{ g KOH}}{69.7 \text{ g KOH}} $- $ \frac{69.7 \text{ g K}}{100 \text{ g KOH}} $- $ \frac{100 \text{ g KOH}}{69.7 \text{ g K}} $- $ \frac{100 \text{ g K}}{69.7 \text{ g KOH}} $**Explanation:**To determine the correct conversion factor, consider the percentage of potassium in potassium hydroxide. The percentage given is 69.7%, which can be interpreted as 69.7 g of potassium per 100 g of potassium hydroxide. This conversion factor is essential for converting the given mass of potassium hydroxide to the mass of potassium.**Correct Conversion Factor:**\[ \frac{69.7 \text{ g K}}{100 \text{ g KOH}} \]This factor indicates that in 100 g of potassium hydroxide, there are 69.7 g of potassium. Using this conversion factor, you can calculate the mass of potassium in any given mass of potassium hydroxide by simple multiplication.

Given: The mass of KOH = 5.6 g The percentage of potassium in KOH by mass = 69.7%
