 <span>Ok so since you are looking for the molar mass, you must multiply each element in the formula for ibuprofen (C13H18O2) by each elements respective masses so C-12 H - 1 and O-16. 
C (12*13)= 156 
H (1*18) = 18 
O (16*2) = 36 
now add all together to get the molar mass (156 + 18 + 36) = 206 grams of C13H18O2 (one mole) 

To calculate the number of moles in an ibuprofen tablet you need to change 200 mg to grams 
200 mg = .2 g 
now one mole of ibuprofen is 206 grams so .2g of ibuprofen would be .2/206 = .00097087 moles of ibuprofen in a single tablet. 

To calculate the moles of ibuprofen that an adult would have consumed with four doses is simply taking the moles from the previous answer and multiplying it by 4 to get the total moles of four doses so .00097087*4 = .0038835 moles of ibuprofen in four doses</span>

Answer :

The molar mass of ibuprofen is, 206.29 g/mole.

The number of moles of ibuprofen in a single tablet is, 0.000969 moles

The number of moles of ibuprofen in four doses is, 0.007752 moles

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mole

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.01 g/mole

Molar mass of oxygen = 15.99 g/mole

1) Now we have to calculate the molar mass of ibuprofen.

Molar mass of ibuprofen, C_{13}H_{18}O_2 = (13\times 12.01)+(18\times 1.01)+(2\times 15.99)=206.29g/mole

The molar mass of ibuprofen = 206.29 g/mole

2) Now we have to calculate the moles of ibuprofen.

Formula used : Moles=\frac{Mass}{\text{ Molar mass}}

Given : Mass of ibuprofen = 200 mg = 0.2 g         (1 mg = 1000 g)

\text{ Moles of ibuprofen}=\frac{\text{ Mass of ibuprofen}}{\text{ Molar mass of ibuprofen}}=\frac{0.2g}{206.29g/mole}=0.000969moles

The moles of ibuprofen = 0.000969 moles

3) Now we have to calculate the number of moles of ibuprofen for four doses.

Number of tablets in one dose = 2

Total number of tablets in 4 doses = 4 × 2 = 8

Number of moles of ibuprofen in 8 tablets =

\text{ Number of moles of ibuprofen in 1 tablet}\times \text{ Total number of tablets}=0.000969\times 8=0.007752moles

Answer:

2 AgNO3 + Na2SO4 → Ag2SO4 + 2 NaNO3

Explanation:

The general schemefor a reaction is given as;

Reactants --> Products

In this question, the reactants are AgNO3 and Na2SO4. The product is Ag2SO4.

The equation is given as;

AgNO3 + Na2SO4 --> Ag2SO4

The other poduct formed in this reaction is NaNO3.

The full reaction is given as;

AgNO3 + Na2SO4 --> Ag2SO4 + NaNO3

The above reaction is not balanced because there are unequal number of atoms of the elements on both sides of the reaction.

The balanced equation is given as;

2 AgNO3 + Na2SO4 → Ag2SO4 + 2 NaNO3

In this equation, there are equal number of moles of the atoms on both sides.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

<u>Why is it important to keep the two sides of an equation balanced when solving?</u>

If two expressions are equal to each other, and you add the same value to both sides of the equation, the equation will remain equal. When you solve an equation, you find the value of the variable that makes the equation true.

<u>What other properties do we use to rewrite expressions and equations?</u>

The period 4 alkaline-earth metal has the name_______ . An isotope of this element having 20 neutrons has amass numberof _______
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The period 4 alkaline-earth metal has the name Calcium. An isotope of this element having 20 neutrons has a mass number of 40.

Explanation:

Looking at the periodic table 4th row for the alkaline-earth metal, we can find Calcium which has an atomic number of 20 (or protons number, or z). The mass number is given by the sum of protons and neutrons. If the number of protons in this case is 20 and the number of neutrons is also 20, the mass number A = 40.
