Amount of moles in 3.34x10^34 formula units of Cu(OH)2

Naily [24]

The amount of moles in 3.34 x10³⁴ formula unit of Cu(OH)₂ is 5.55 × 10¹⁰ moles

calculation

The amount of moles is calculated using the Avogadro's law constant

That is 1 moles = 6.02 × 10²³ formula units

? moles = 3.34 × 10³⁴ formula units

by cross multiplication

= {1 mole ×3.34 ×10³⁴ formula units ] / 6.02 × 10²³ formula units} = 5.55 ×10¹⁰ moles

1. 2KCIO3, -- 2KCI + 302 How many moles of O2 will be produced from 2.25 moles of KCIO3?

Scilla [17]

Answer:

3.375moles of O₂

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

Number of moles of KClO₃ = 2.25moles

Now;

To find the number of moles of O₂ produced we use known number of moles.

So;

2 mole of KClO₃ will produce 3 moles of O₂

2.25moles of KClO₃ will produce $\frac{2.25 x 3}{2}$ = 3.375moles of O₂
