Answer:
it would increase to twice what it was
Answer:
Please find the answer to the question below
Explanation:
In chemistry, the following mathematical formula is used to calculate the number of moles contained by a substance:
mole = mass of substance (g)/molar mass of substance (g/mol)
Molar mass of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) = 12(7) + 1(6) + 16(3)
= 84 + 6 + 48
= 138g/mol
Mass = 5.50grams
mole = 5.5/138
mole = 0.039
Approximately, the number of moles of 5.5grams of salicylic acid is 0.04moles. This is in accordance with the mole value (0.04) given in this question.
Answer:
it would be the second choice
