Answer:
1.50 moles of POH or Potassium Hydroxide.
Explanation:
First of all, find the substance formula
The substance formula of Potassium Hydroxide is
KOH
Second of all, if you want to convert from grams to moles, you use molar mass of KOH
Third of all, find the molar mass of KOH.
K = 39.1 amu
O = 16.0 amu
H= 1.0 amu
Potassium has 1 atom, oxygen has 1 atom, and hydrogen has 1 atom.
So do this:
39.1(1) + 16.0(1) + 1.0(1) = 56.1
The molar mass of KOH is 56.1 g/mol.
Fourth of all, use dimensional analysis to show your work.
84.20 grams of KOH * 1 mol/56.1 g/mol
The moles will cancel out.
84.20 divided by 56.1 = 1.500892166
But I have to round my answer to two digits after the decimal points instead of using sig figs.
So I round to the hundredths place
1.500892166 = 1.50
So the final answer is 1.50 moles(don't forget the units) of POH.
Hope it helped!
