Answer:

$\boxed{\text{378 g}}$

Explanation:

We must convert formula units of Zn(ClO₃)₂ to moles and then to grams of Zn(ClO₃)₂.

Step 1. Convert formula units to moles

$\text{Moles of Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}\\\\= 9.80 \times10^{23}\text{ formula units Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}}{6.022 \times\ 10^{23} \text{ formula units Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}}\\\\= \text{1.627 mol Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}$

Step 2. Convert moles to grams

$\text{Mass of Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}\\\\= \text{1.627 mol Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{232.29 g Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}}\\\\= \text{378 g Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$}\\\\\text{The mass of Zn(ClO$_{3}$)$_{2}$ is } \boxed{\textbf{378 g}}$

Answer:

The answer is " $= 0.078 \ kg \ H_2$ ".

Explanation:

calculating the moles in $CH_4 =\frac{PV}{RT}$

$=\frac{(0.58 \ atm) \times (923 \ L) }{ (0.0821 \frac{L \cdot atm}{K \cdot mol})(232^{\circ} C +273)}\\\\=\frac{(535.34 \ atm \cdot \ L) }{ (0.0821 \frac{L \cdot atm}{K \cdot mol})(505)K}\\\\=\frac{(535.34 \ atm \cdot \ L) }{ (41.4605 \frac{L \cdot atm}{mol})}\\\\= 12.9 \ mol$
