Question

What is the volume V of a sample of 2.30 mol of copper? The atomic mass of copper (Cu) is 63.5 g/mol, and the density of copper is 8.92×103kg/m3.

Answer 1

Answer:

1.636 x 10^-5 m^3

Explanation:

As we know that

1 mol of copper = 63.5 g of copper

2.3 mol of copper = 63.5 x 2.3 = 146.05 g of copper = 0.146 kg of copper

Density of copper = 8.92 x 10^3 kg/m^3

The relation between mass and volume is given by

mass = volume x density

$Volume = \frac{mass}{density}$

$Volume = \frac{0.146}{8.92\times10^3}=1.636\times10^{-5}m^3$

Thus, the volume of copper is 1.636 x 10^-5 m^3.
