First. moles is just a label for a number of things. just like a
dozen = 12, a gross = 144, a mole = 6022 with another 20 zeros after the
2
next
moles = mass / molecular weight.
molecular weight = sum of atomic mass from the periodic table
atomic mass MnO2 = atomic mass Mn + 2 x atomic mass O
= 54.94 + 2 x 16 = 86.94 g/mole
so moles MnO2 = 98.0 grams / (86.94 g/mole) = 1.13 moles
notice that I only gave 3 digits? that because of sig figs read the link below if you don't understand....
mw C5H12 = 5 x 12 + 12 x 1 = 72 g/mole
so moles C5H12 = 12.0 g / 72.0 g/mole = 0.167 moles
mw XeF6 = 131.3+ 6 x 19.00 = 245.3
so moles XeF6 = 100 g / 245.3 g/mole = 0.4077 moles
I've also provided a link to a periodic table. if you need atomic weights click on any element and it will give you the
details.
Answer:
Approximately 53.3 %.
Explanation:
Molar mass of C2H4O2
= 2 * 12.011 + 4 * 1.008 + 2 * 15.999
= 60.052
% oxygen = (31.998* 100) / 60.052 = 53.28 %
