How many moles are in 28 grams of O2?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

0.88 mol O₂

Explanation:

Step 1: Find molar mass

Oxygen (O) - 16.00 g/mol

O₂ - 32.00 g/mol

Step 2: Use Dimensional Analysis

28 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} O_2(\frac{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} O_2}{32.00 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} O_2} ) = 0.875 mol O₂

Step 3: Simplify

We have 2 sig figs.

0.875 mol O₂ ≈ 0.88 mol O₂

liberstina [14]

Answer;

=28.09 amu

Explanation;

In this problem, they did not give us the percentages. However, since we know the number of atoms, we can easily calculate the percentages. For example:  

(460 X 100)/500 = 92%  

If we do this for all three isotopes,

(460 × 25)/500 = 5 %

(460 × 15) /500 = 3%

-We get 92%, 5%, and 3%. (We'll assume these are absolute numbers for determining our significant figures).

Now the problem is just like the previous one. First convert the percentages into decimals. Then multiply those decimals by the masses and add. Here's the solution:  

= (0.92) X (27.98 amu) + (0.05) X (28.98 amu) + (0.03) X (29.97 amu)

= 25.74 amu  +  1.449 amu  + 0.8991 amu

= 28.09 amu
