Democritus was the first person to theorize the existence of atoms.
Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula:
<span>C4H6O </span>
<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>
<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>
<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>
<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>
<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>
<span>C16H24O4 </span>
Answer:
4 moles of neon
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of neon = ?
Number of atoms of neon = 2.4×10²⁴ atoms
Solution:
The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
For example,
18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water
1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
For given neon atoms:
1 mol = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
2.4×10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
0.4×10¹ mol = 4 mol
