The equation for finding how many moles are in a substance is
moles = mass / relative formula mass,
where mass is measured in g.
The r.f.m. (relative formula mass) is found by adding together all of the atomic masses of the elements in a substance.
e.g. CO2 (carbon dioxide) has 1 atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.
The relative atomic mass of carbon is approximately 12.
The relative atomic mass of oxygen is approximately 16.
12 + (2 x 16) = 44
The r.f.m. of carbon dioxide is 44.
You would then divide the mass of the substance (how much there is of it) by its r.f.m. to find the mole number.
Answer:
37.1 g of Arsenic
Explanation:
2.98 x 10^21 atoms of Arsenic x 74.92g/6.02 x 10^23
= 223.26 x 10^21/6.02 x 10^23
= 2.2326 x 10^23/6.02 x 10^23
= 37.1 g of Arsenic
Answer:
<h2>The answer is 615 g</h2>
Explanation:
The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula
<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>
From the question
volume of seawater = 600 mL
density = 1.025 g/mL
The mass is
mass = 600 × 1.025
We have the final answer as
<h3>615 g</h3>

B. a sugar crystal
Because sugar comes from plants, it is classified as an organic compound, not a mineral.
