<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 25.0 g Au

[Solve] moles Au

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[PT] Molar Mass of Au - 196.97 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 25.0 \ g \ Au(\frac{1 \ mol \ Au}{196.97 \ g \ Au})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units:                                                          \displaystyle 0.126923 \ mol \ Au

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

0.126923 mol Au ≈ 0.127 mol Au

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.127 \ mol \ Au}}

Explanation:

To convert from mass to moles, the molar mass must be used. This can be found on the Periodic Table.

  • Gold (Au): 196.96657 g/mol

Use this number as a ratio.

\frac {196.96657 \ g\ Au }{1 \ mol \ Au}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

25.0 \ g \ Au*\frac {196.96657 \ g\ Au }{1 \ mol \ Au}

Flip the fraction so the grams of gold will cancel.

25.0 \ g \ Au*\frac {1 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657 \ g\ Au }

25.0*\frac {1 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657  }

\frac {25.0 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657  }

0.1269250919 \ mol \ Au

The original measurement has 3 significant figures, so the answer must have the same. For the number we calculated that is the thousandth place. The 9 in the ten thousandth place tells us to round the 6 to a 7.

0.127 \ mol \ Au

25.0 grams of gold is about 0.127 moles of gold.

The equilibrium constant K changes with changes in<br>the temperature.​
chubhunter [2.5K]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>Equilibrium constants are changed if you change the temperature of the system. Kc or Kp are constant at constant temperature, but they vary as the temperature changes. You can see that as the temperature increases, the value of Kp falls.</h2>
