You can solve this problem through dimensional analysis.
First, find the molar mass of NaHCO3.
Na = 22.99 g
H = 1.008 g
C = 12.01 g
O (3) = 16 (3) g
Now, add them all together, you end with with the molar mass of NaHCO3.
22.99 + 1.008 + 12.01 + 16(3) = 84.008 g NaHCO3. This number means that for every mole of NaHCO3, there is 84.008 g NaHCO3. In simpler terms, 1 mole NaHCO3 = 84.008 g NaHCO3.
After finding the molar mass of sodium bicarbonate, now you can use dimensional analysis to solve for the number of moles present in 200. g of sodium bicarbonate.
Cross out the repeating units which are g NaHCO3, and the remaining unit is mole NaHCO3
200. * 1 = 200
200/ 84.008 = 2.38
Notice how there are only 3 sig figs in the answer. This is because the given problem only gave three sig figs.
Your final answer is 2.38 mol NaHCO3.
it's turned into steam.
It dissolves and turns into steam no explanation needed,it'sa simple answer,idk who reported it but i'll answer it again:)
The needs of future generations
If the cup of water contained hot water. Sugar will dissolve a lot slower if it was in room temperature and even slower if it was in cold water.
Well if you go to Quiz-let it gives the answer the mass of a mole of compound is determined by adding the atomic masses of the atoms making up the molecules
