If a sample of pure cadmium has a mass of 18.2 grams, how many moles of cadmium are in the sample?

1 answer:

3 0

Atomic mass cadmium = 112.41 amu

1 mole Cd ------------ 112.41 g
?? moles Cd --------- 18.2 g

18.2 x 1 / 112.41 => 0.161 moles of Cd

hope this helps!

Answer: Moles of hydrogen required are 4.57 moles to make 146.6 grams of methane, $CH_{4}$ .

Explanation:

Given: Mass of methane = 146.6 g

As moles is the mass of a substance divided by its molar mass. So, moles of methane (molar mass = 16.04 g/mol) are calculated as follows.

$Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{146.6 g}{16.04 g/mol}\\= 9.14 mol$

The given reaction equation is as follows.

$C + 2H_{2} \rightarrow CH_{4}$

This shows that 2 moles of hydrogen gives 1 mole of methane. Hence, moles of hydrogen required to form 9.14 moles of methane is as follows.

$Moles of H_{2} = \frac{9.14}{2}\\= 4.57 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that moles of hydrogen required are 4.57 moles to make 146.6 grams of methane, $CH_{4}$ .

What is meant by polar molecule?

Lostsunrise [7]

A polar molecule has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges (i.e. having partial positive and partial negative charges) from polar bonds arranged asymmetrically. Water (H2O) is an example of a polar molecule since it has a slight positive charge on one side and a slight negative charge on the other.
