Determine the mass percent composition of a solution made by dissolving 57.1 g of

This reaction achieved by  Friedrich Wöhler led to the birth of synthethic organic chemistry.

Prior to the successful synthesis of urea by Friedrich Wöhler in the year 1828, chemists believed that it is purely impossible to synthesize various organic substances in the laboratory owing to the absence of an imaginary "vital force". responsible for the formation of those substances.

However, the synthesis of urea by Friedrich Wöhler opened up the idea of laboratory organic synthesis which have blossomed into the present synthetic organic chemistry.

The equation for the synthesis of urea from ammonium cyanate is shown in the image attached.

Organic compounds which occur in nature could now be synthesized and studied under laboratory conditions.

Hence, this reaction achieved by  Friedrich Wöhler led to the birth of synthethic organic chemistry.
