Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Problem

We are given a 5.00 g sample of stainless steel that contains 18.0% chromium. We need to calculate the mass of chromium in this sample.

Step 2: Calculate the Mass of Chromium

To find the mass of chromium, we use the percentage given. The mass of chromium can be calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Mass of Chromium} = \left(\frac{\text{Percentage of Chromium}}{100}\right) \times \text{Total Mass of Sample} \]

Substituting the given values:

\[ \text{Mass of Chromium} = \left(\frac{18.0}{100}\right) \times 5.00 \, \text{g} = 0.900 \, \text{g} \]

Final Answer

The mass of chromium in the sample is \(\boxed{0.900 \, \text{g}}\).
