A sample of ore containing manganese weighed 1.2354 grams. This sample was heated in a solution of nitric acid, which dissolved the manganese producing manganese (III) nitrate [Mn(NO3)3]. The acidity of the solution was adjusted, and hydrogen sulfide gas was bubbled into the solution producing 0.2876 grams of manganese (II) sulfide [Mn2S3]. What is the percentage of manganese in the original sample? O 5.45% O 6.8% O 11.65% 12.41%
