A pinch of salt has
1 answer:
13.29 X moles of NaCl are in a pinch of salt and a pinch of salt has
approximately 3.29x formula units of NaCl.
The mole is the amount of substance of a system which contains as many elementary entities as there are atoms in 0.012 kilogram of carbon 12; its symbol is “mol”.
We know that 1 formula unit of sodium chloride has a molar mass of 58.44g/mol
Hence;
Mass of 1 formula unit = 58.44g
Mass of 3.29 x formula units
13.29 x x 58.44g
776.6676 x
Moles =
Moles = 13.29 X
Therefore;
13.29 X moles of NaCl are in a pinch of salt.

Answer: -
The chemical formula of Antimony(III) sulfide = Sb₂S₃
Mass of Sb produced = 175.6 g
Molar mass of Sb = 121.76 g /mol
Number of moles of Sb = 175.6g / (121.76 g/mol)
= 1.44 mol
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is
Sb₂S₃ + 3 Fe → 2 Sb + 3 FeS
From the chemical equation we see
2 mol of Sb is produced from 1 mol of Sb₂S₃
1.44 mol of Sb is produced from
= 0.72 mol of Sb₂S₃
Molar mass of Sb₂S₃ = 2 x 121.76 + 32.06 x 3
= 339.7 g / mol
Mass of Sb₂S₃ = 0.72 mol x 339.7 g/ mol
= 244.58 g
= 244.6 g rounded off to 4 significant figures.
