Explanation:
We want to convert from moles to grams, so we must use the molar mass.
<h3>1. Molar Mass</h3>The molar mass is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the same as the atomic masses on the Periodic Table, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).
We are given the compound PI₃ or phosphorus triiodide. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.
- Phosphorus (P): 30.973762 g/mol
- Iodine (I): 126.9045 g/mol
Note that there is a subscript of 3 after the I in the formula. This means there are 3 moles of iodine in 1 mole of the compound PI₃. We should multiply iodine's molar mass by 3, then add phosphorus's molar mass.
- I₃: 126.9045 * 3=380.7135 g/mol
- PI₃: 30.973762 + 380.7135 = 411.687262 g/mol
Use the molar mass as a ratio.
We want to convert 3.14 moles to grams, so we multiply by that value.
The units of moles of PI₃ cancel.
The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tens place.
- 1292.698
The 2 in the ones place tells us to leave the 9.
3.14 moles of phosphorous triiodide is approximately equal to <u>1290 grams of phosphorus triodide.</u>
Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is .
It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.
Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other.
