Scientists can calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons which can be found in the nucleus of the element's atoms. The atomic mass of an element is the product of protons plus neutrons. The number of neutrons is not always equal to the number of protons. By subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass, the difference will be how many neutrons are in the element's nucleus.

How many molecules of CaCl2 are equivalent to 75.9 g CaCl2
sergij07 [2.7K]
First, you need to find:
One mole of CaCl_{2} is equivalent to how many grams?

Well, for this you have to look up the periodic table. According to the periodic table:
The atomic mass of Calcium Ca = 40.078 g (See in group 2)
The atomic mass of <span>Chlorine Cl = 35.45 g (See in group 17)
</span>
As there are two atoms of Chlorine present in CaCl_{2}, therefore, the atomic mass of CaCl_{2} would be:

Atomic mass of CaCl_{2}  = Atomic mass of Ca + 2 * Atomic mass of Cl

Atomic mass of CaCl_{2} = 40.078 + 2 * 35.45 = 110.978 g

Now,

110.978 g of CaCl_{2} = 1 mole.
75.9 g of CaCl_{2} = \frac{75.9}{110.978} moles = 0.6839 moles.

Hence,
The total number of moles in 75.9g of CaCl_{2} = 0.6839 moles

According to <span>Avogadro's number,
1 mole = 1 * </span>6.022 * 10^{23} molecules
0.6839 moles = 0.6839 * 6.022 * 10^{23} molecules = 4.118*10^{23} molecules

Ans: Number of molecules in 75.9g of  CaCl_{2} =  4.118*10^{23} molecules
