Adding the number of protons by the number of neutrons
Answer:
13.5 g
Explanation:
This question is solved easily if we remember that the number of moles is obtained by dividing the mass into the atomic weight or molar mass depending if we are referring to elements or molecules.
Therefore, the mass of aluminum in the reaction will the 0.050 mol Al times the atomic weight of aluminum.
number of moles = n = mass of Al / Atomic Weight Al
⇒ mass Al = n x Atomic Weight Al = 0.050 mol x 27 g mol⁻¹
= 13.5 g
We have three significant figures in 0.050 and therefore we should have three significant figures in our answer.
Explanation:
13 are the number of atoms
