Explanation
I just did this question and got it right.
An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.
Answer:
731.25 g
Explanation:
The question asks us to calculate the mass of 12.5 moles of NaCl. The individual relative atomic masses of the elements were supplied. We must first obtain the molar mass of sodium chloride as follows;
Molar mass of sodium chloride= 23.0 + 35.5 = 58.5 gmol-1
From the formula;
Number of moles (n) = mass /molar mass
Number of moles of sodium chloride= 12.5 moles
Mass of sodium = The unknown
Molar mass of sodium chloride= 58.5gmol-1
Mass of sodium chloride= number of moles × molar mass
Mass of sodium chloride= 12.5 × 58.5
Mass of sodium chloride= 731.25 g
