Answer 1

Answer:

359 g Mn

General Formulas and Concepts:

• Dimensional Analysis
• Reading the Periodic Table of Elements

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

6.53 mol Mn

Step 2: Find conversion

1 mol Mn = 54.94 g Mn

Step 3: Dimensional Analysis

$6.53 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} Mn(\frac{54.94 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} Mn}{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} Mn} )$ = 358.758 g Mn

Step 4: Simplify

We are given 3 sig figs.

358.758 g Mn ≈ 359 g Mn
