Question

Determine how many oxygeng atoms are in 5.00 g of sample of sodium dichromate, na2cr2o7

Answer 1

The number of oxygen atoms is in 5.00 g of sample of sodium dichromate, Na₂Cr₂O₇ is 1.125 x 10²³ atoms.

What is sodium dichromate?

Sodium dichromate is an inorganic compound. It is sued in tanning and mental illness.

The molar mass of sodium = 23 gm

The molar mass of Cr = 51.99 gm

The molar mass of oxygen = 16 gm

Molar mass of Na₂Cr₂O₇ = 2(23) + 2(51.99) + 7(16) = 261.98 gm

Number of moles in 7 gm = mass / molar mass = 7 / 261.98 = 0.0267 moles

1 mole of  Na₂Cr₂O₇ contains 7 moles of oxygen, therefore:

The number of moles of oxygen in 0.0267 moles = 0.0267 x 7 = 0.1869 moles

Thus, the number of atoms = 0.1869 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.125 x 10²³ atoms.
