Answer:

No. If you were to set up what the friend said it would look like this:

19.7g × \frac{grams}{moles} ==>  \frac{19.7 grams}{1} ×

The above does not look right because the grams do not cancel out. If it's not cancelled, it would be included in your final answer, but you're looking for moles not grams.

When setting up a stoichiometry equation, you have to put the same unit of measurement (ex- grams, cm, mm, etc.) on the numerator of one side and the denominator of the other side.

This would cancel out the unit.

For example: If you wanted to find out how much of 320 cm are in a meter.

*there are 100 cm in 1 meter*

(1. always start with the given number!)

(2. set up the next fraction where you can cancel out cm)

\frac{320cm}{1} × \frac{1 meter}{100 cm} = 3.2 m

Going back, your friend would have to switch the units from grams/moles to moles/grams. It would cancel out grams, which would leave moles. Therefore, moles will be included in your final answer.

\frac{19.7 grams}{1} × \frac{moles}{grams} = _?_ moles

describe how astronomers are able to use the light from a distant star to determine what elements make up the stars.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The spectra of the Sun and stars exhibited bright and dark lines called Fraunhofer lines. These were shown to be caused by elements emitting or absorbing light at specific wavelengths. Because each element emits or absorbs light only at specific wavelengths, the chemical composition of stars can be determined.

How many molecules are in 3 moles of potassium bromide (KBr)
sattari [20]

Answer:

Your strategy here will be to use the molar mass of potassium bromide,

KBr

, as a conversion factor to help you find the mass of three moles of this compound.

So, a compound's molar mass essentially tells you the mass of one mole of said compound. Now, let's assume that you only have a periodic table to work with here.

Potassium bromide is an ionic compound that is made up of potassium cations,

K

+

, and bromide anions,

Br

−

. Essentially, one formula unit of potassium bromide contains a potassium atom and a bromine atom.

Use the periodic table to find the molar masses of these two elements. You will find

For K:

M

M

=

39.0963 g mol

−

1

For Br:

M

M

=

79.904 g mol

−

To get the molar mass of one formula unit of potassium bromide, add the molar masses of the two elements

M

M KBr

=

39.0963 g mol

+

79.904 g mol

−

≈

119 g mol

So, if one mole of potassium bromide has a mas of

119 g

m it follows that three moles will have a mass of

⋅

molar mass of KBr

You should round this off to one sig fig, since that is how many sig figs you have for the number of moles of potassium bromide, but I'll leave it rounded to two sig figs
