Question

How many oxygen atoms are contained in 2.74 g of Al2(SO4)3?

Answer 1

Answer:

either 12 or 24

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

5.79 × 10^23 Oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Number of Oxygen atom in the compound = 4×3 = 12

Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 = 342 g/mol.

No of mole = mass/molar mass = 2.74/342 = 8.01×10^-03 mole

2.74g of Al2(SO4)3 × 1 mole of Al2 (SO4)3 / 342g of Al2 (SO4)3 * 12 mole of Oxygen/ 1mole of Al(SO4)3 * 6.02×10^23 Oxygen atom/ 1 mole of Oxygen

= 5.79×10^23 Oxygen atoms
