Capitolo 3, Problema 72b

Determine the number of moles (of molecules or formula units) in each sample. b. 23.6 kg Fe(NO3)2

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Convert the mass of the sample from kilograms to grams. Since 1 kg = 1000 g, multiply 23.6 kg by 1000 to get the mass in grams.
Calculate the molar mass of Fe(NO_3)_2. To do this, add the atomic masses of all the atoms in the formula: Fe, N, and O. Use the periodic table to find these atomic masses.
The molar mass of Fe(NO_3)_2 is the sum of the atomic masses: 1 Fe, 2 N, and 6 O. Calculate this value.
Use the formula: number of moles = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol). Substitute the mass in grams and the molar mass you calculated into this formula.
Solve the equation to find the number of moles of Fe(NO_3)_2 in the sample.
