Answer:

The answer to your question is 2.3 g

Explanation:

Data

Molecule = NaOH

grams of Na in 4 g of NaOH

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of NaOH

molecular mass = (1 x 23) + (1 x 16) + (1 x 1)

                          = 23 + 16 + 1

                          = 40 g

2.- Calculate the atomic mass of sodium

atomic mass = 23 g

3.- Use proportions to solve this problem

                     40 g of NaOH ----------------  4 g of NaOH

                      23 g of Na      ----------------  x

                      x = (4 x 23) / 40

                     x = 2.3 g

A chemist determines by measurements that 0.030 moles of nitrogen gas participate in a chemical reaction. calculate the mass of
zzz [600]
Remember that: 
number of moles = mass/molar mass

First, we get the molar mass of the nitrogen gas molecule:
It is known the the nitrogen gas is composed of two nitrogen atoms, each with molar mass 14 gm (from the periodic table)
Therefore, molar mass of nitrogen gas = 14 x 2 = 28 gm

Second we calculate the mass of the precipitate:
we have number of moles = 0.03 moles (given)
and molar mass = 28 gm (calculated)
Using the equation mentioned before,
mass = number of moles x molar mass = 0.03 x 28 = 0.84 gm
