So what am I suppose to answer here?
40.0 g ( 1 mole ) --------------- 6.02x10²³ molecules
? ? --------------------------- 2.90x10²² molecules
mass = 2.90x10²² * 40.0 / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.16x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.9269 g
hope this helps!
Answer:
- <u><em>1.7 × 10³ kg of ore.</em></u>
Explanation:
Call X the amount of aluminum ore mined to produce 1.0 × 10³ kg the aluminum metal.
Then, taking into account the yield of the reaction (82 % = 0.82) and the percent of aluminun in the ore (71% = 0.71), you can write the following equation:
- X × 71% × 82% = 1.0 × 10³ kg
↑ ↑ ↑ ↑
(mass of ore) (% of Al in the ore) (yield) ( Al metal to obtain)
You must just simplify, solve and compute:
- X = 1,000 / (0.71 × 0.82) = 1,000 / 0.5822 = 1,717.6 Kg
Round to two significant figures; 1,700 kg = 1.7 × 10³ kg of ore ← answer.
