Question

How many molecules are there in 560 grams of CoCl2?​

Answer 1

Answer:

25.89  × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CoCl₂ = 560 g

Number of molecules present = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of CoCl₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 560 g/ 129.84 g/mol

Number of moles = 4.3 mol

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

4.3 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol

25.89  × 10²³ molecules
