This happens because ice is made up of water, and when that water freezes, it never goes back to land, thus there being less water on the coastline. But when the ice starts to melt, the water will even out quickly, and the water will go to the coastline, causing the tide to rise. Mark brainliest, please.

Identify the number of moles in 369 grams of calcium hydroxide. Use the periodic table and the polyatomic ion resource.

topjm [15]

Answer : The number of moles in 369 grams of calcium hydroxide is, 4.98 moles

Explanation : Given,

Mass of calcium hydroxide = 369 g

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide = 74.093 g/mole

Formula used :

$\text{Moles of calcium hydroxide}=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium hydroxide}}{\text{Molar mass of calcium hydroxide}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the moles of calcium hydroxide.

$\text{Moles of calcium hydroxide}=\frac{369g}{74.093g/mole}=4.98mole$

Therefore, the number of moles in 369 grams of calcium hydroxide is, 4.98 moles
