Answer: I hope this Help You!:)

<u>Mass</u> is simply the measure of the amount of matter in a body.

<u>Weight</u> Weight is the measure of the amount of force acting on a mass due to acceleration due to gravity.

<u></u>

<em><u>The mass of an object is often referred to as its weight, though these are in fact different concepts and quantities. In scientific contexts, mass is the amount of "matter" in an object (though "matter" may be difficult to define), whereas weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. In other words, an object with a mass of 1.0 kilogram weighs approximately 9.81 newtons on the surface of the Earth, which is its mass multiplied by the gravitational field strength. The object's weight is less on Mars, where gravity is weaker, and more on Saturn, and very small in space when far from any significant source of gravity, but it always has the same mass.</u></em>

For which compound does 0.256 mole weigh 12.8 g?
mylen [45]
Number of moles = \frac{mass (g)}{Molar mass}
so to calculate molar mass (Molecular weight of compound):
Molecular weight = \frac{mass (g)}{number of moles}
            = \frac{12.8 g}{0.256 mole} = 50 g / mole
Now we calculate molecular weight of each compound in choices:
a) C₂H₄O = 44
b) CO₂ = 44
c) CH₃Cl = 50.4 ALMOST 50  so this is the correct answer
d) C₂H₆ = 30
