We are given the molar mass of Molybdenum as 95.94 g/mol. Also, the chemical symbol for Molybdenum is Mo. This question is asking for the amount of molecules of molybdenum in a 150.0 g sample. However, since molybdenum is a metal and it is in the form of solid molybdenum, Mo (s), it is not actual a molecule. A molecule has one or more atom bonded together. We will instead be finding the amount of atoms of Molybdenum present in the sample. To do this we use Avogadro's number, which is the amount of atoms/molecules of a substance in 1 mole of that substance.
150.0 g Mo/ 95.94 g/mol = 1.563 moles of Mo
1.563 moles Mo x 6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mole = 9.415 x 10²³ atoms Mo
Therefore, there are 9.415 x 10²³ atoms of Molybdenum in 150.0 g.
If a molecule has four hybrid sp3 orbitals, it can be concluded that the molecule has a TETRAHEDRAL GEOMETORY
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the theoretical yield, determine the number of moles of each reactant, in this case the sole reactant ethanol. Convert the 100 g to moles; the molecular weight of ethanol is 46 g/mole, therefore: Since there is only one reactant, it is also the limiting reagent.
