Convert 5.4g of NaCl to moles
sammy [17]

Answer:

.0924 moles of NaCl

Explanation:

So you know you have 5.4 g of NaCl and you need to know how many moles there are in this amount of NaCl

  1. You'll need to find the atomic mass of the compound NaCl to help you solve for moles
  • Sodium (Na) on the periodic table has a mass of 22.99
  • Chlorine (Cl) on the periodic table has a mass of 35.45

Add these two together----> 22.99 + 35.45 = 58.44

Now you can calculate for moles

<u>Written-out method:</u>

<u>5.4 grams of NaCl  |   1 mole of  NaCl              </u>

                                | 58.44 grams NaCl                = .0924 moles of NaCl

<u>Plug into calculator method:</u>

(5.4 g of NaCl/ 58.44g NaCl= .0925 moles)

<em><u></u></em>

Explanation:

Domains : A magnetic domain is the region in which in which magnetic field of the atoms are grouped together and aligned.

  • In unmagnetized material all the magnetic Domains  point in different direction.
  • In magnetised material (ferromagnets , antiferromagnets) , The Domains point in a particular( fixed Pattern) direction.
