In $2009,$ a team from Northwestern University and Western Washington University reported the preparation of a new "spongy" material composed of nickel, molybdenum, and sulfur that excels at removing mercury from water. The density of this new material is $0\mathrm{.}20\frac{g}{c}{m}^3,$ and its surface area is $1242m^2$ per gram of material.

Part C

A $10\mathrm{.}0-mL$ sample of contaminated water had $7\mathrm{.}748mg$ of mercury in it$.$ After treatment with $10\mathrm{.}0mg$ of the new spongy material, $0\mathrm{.}001mg$ of mercury remained in the contaminated water. What percentage of the mercury was removed from the water?
