8.11 × 10²⁸ atoms of helium are contained in a 539 kg helium.

For every mole of a substance there are 6.022 × 10²³ representative particles of that substance. The amount of particles in one mole of substance is called Avogadro's number.

<u>Further Explanation</u>

To convert from the number of moles to number of representative particles, the formula below may be used:

no. \ of \ particles \ = given \ mass \times \frac{1 \ mol}{formula \ mass} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23} \ particles}{1 \ mol}

For this problem, the number of helium atoms can be determined by plugging in the given values in the equation above. But before plugging in, the mass of helium must first be converted to grams. Then, the mass is converted to the number of moles and the number of moles is converted to the number of particles using Avogadro's number.

no. \ of \ He \ atoms \ =539 \ kg \times \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg} \times \frac{1 \ mol}{4.0026 \ g} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms}{1 \ mol}\\\\\boxed {no. \ of \ He \ atoms = 8.109 \times 10^{28} atoms}

Since the given has only three significant figures, the final answer must also have three significant figures. Therefore, the answer rounded to correct significant figures is:

\boxed {\boxed {no. \ of \ He \ atoms = 8.11 \times 10^{28} atoms}}

Atomic mass of helium is 4.002642g/mol 
(542000g)/(4.002642g/mol)*6.02*10^23 = 8.15*10^28 atoms

The density formula is density equal mass divided by volume (d=m/v) to solve this you must get the mass by itself. You do this by multiply volume on both sides which then gets you density times volume equal mass. Then you can plug in the numbers which is 1.20g/mL x 60.5 mL the mL cancels out which leaves you with grams and thus you have 72.6g.

For which of the following aqueous solutions would one expect to have the largest van’t Hoff factor (i)? a. 0.050 m NaCl b. 0.50
ira [324]

Answer:

The van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be highest.

Explanation:

Van't Hoff factor was introduced for better understanding of colligative property of a solution.

By definition it is the ratio of actual number of particles or ions or associated molecules formed when a solute is dissolved to the number of particles expected from the mass dissolved.

a) For NaCl the van't Hoff factor is 2

b) For K₂SO₄ the van't Hoff factor is 3 [it will dissociate to give three ions one sulfate ion and two potassium ions]

Out of 0.500m and 0.050m K₂SO₄, the van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be more.

c) The van't Hoff factor for glucose is one as it is a non electrolyte and will not dissociate.
