Question

How many moles of CCI are there in 78.2 g of CCI.?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.508 mole

Explanation:

NOTE: Since no hydrogen is attached to the compound given in question above, it means the compound is CCl₄.

The number of mole present in 78.2 g of CCl₄ can be obtained as follow:

Mass of CCl₄ = 78.2 g

Molar mass of CCl₄ = 12 + (35.5×4)

= 12 + 142

= 154 g/mol

Mole of CCl₄ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of CCl₄ = 78.2 / 154

Mole of CCl₄ = 0.508 mole

Therefore, 0.508 mole is present in 78.2 g of CCl₄
