Question

Beryllium oxide, Beo, is an electrical insulator. How

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.

Explanation:

We can calculate the number of moles (η) of BeO as follows:

$\eta = \frac{m}{M}$

Where:

m: is the mass = 250 g

M: is the molar mass = 25.0116 g/mol

Hence, the number of moles is:

$\eta = \frac{250 g}{25.0116 g/mol} = 10.0 moles$

Therefore, there are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.  

I hope it helps you!
