Cis-platin is a chemotherapy agent used to treat and kill cancerous cells in patients. One mole of cis-platin has a mass of 300.06 grams/mol. Thus, option B is correct.
<h3>What is a chemotherapy agent?</h3>
A chemotherapy agent is an alkylating agent that is used to treat cancer and is given to reduce the infection or to relieve the symptoms. Cis-platin (Pt(NH₃)₂Cl₂) is one of the chemotherapy agents that treat lung, ovarian, and neck cancer, etc.
The mass of one mole of Cis-platin is calculated as,
Moles = mass ÷ molar mass
Where,
Moles = 1 mole
The molar mass of (Pt(NH₃)₂Cl₂) is calculated as,
195.06 g/mole + 2(17g/mole) + (35.5)2 = 300.06 grams
Substituting values to calculate mass:
Mass = Molar mass × moles
= 300. 06 × 1
= 300.06 grams/mol
Therefore, option B. 300.06 gm/mol is the mass of Cis-platin.
