Calculate the number of moles in the following: 2.8 X 10^24 atoms of Cl2

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.65 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question

N = 2.8 × 10²⁴ atoms of Cl2

So we have

$n = \frac{2.8 \times {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 4.65116279069...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.65 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
