Question

How many molecules are found in 90 grams of Al(OH)3?

Answer 1

Answer:

6.95 x 10²³ molecules/particles

Explanation:

First we need to find the total Empirical Mass. We can find this by adding each element's mass together.

Al = 26.982,

O = 15.999

H = 1.008

26.982 + 3(15.999) + 3(1.008) = 78.003.

Now we divide by the mass given (90 grams).

90/78.003 = 1.153801777.

We then take that number and multiply it by avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³)

1.153801777 x avogadro's number = 6.95 x 10²³
