Convert 4.5 X 1022 molecules of H2O to moles.
noname [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.075 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}  \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{4.5 \times  {10}^{22} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 0.074750830...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.075 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which of the following best explains why ionic crystals are brittle?​
Natalka [10]

Packing

Explanation:

Ionic crystals are  brittle due to the tight packing of their crystals. This provides little to no mobility between one another.

  • Brittleness implies having little to no elasticity.
  • Ionic crystals are held together by strong crystal lattice forces
  • These forces prevents crystals from freely rotating and moving space.
  • It holds them rigidly and fixed in place.
  • Ionic crystals are hard and held electrostatic forces.
