Question

If an experiment calls for 0.200mole acetic acid (Hc2H3O2)how many grams of glacial acetic acid do we need?

Answer 1

Molar mass:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto HC_2H_3O_2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1u+2(12u)+3(1u)+2(16u)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1u+24u+3u+48u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 28u+48u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 76u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 76g/mol$

• No of moles=0.2mol
• Given mass=?

$\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\;moles=\dfrac{Given\:Mass}{Molar\:Mass}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.2=\dfrac{Given\:mass}{76}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Given\:Mass=0.2\times 76$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Given\:Mass=1.52g$
