All organic substances contain carbon atoms.
Answer:
44 grams/mole
Explanation:
<u>If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XO3, what is the molar mass of XO₂?</u>
<u></u>
60 grams of XO3 is one mole XO3, since it has the same number of atoms as 1 mole of XO2.
Let c be the molar mass of X. The molar mass of XO3 is comprised of:
X: c
3O: 3 x 16 = 48
Total molar mass of XO3 is = <u>48 + c</u>
We know that the molar mass of XO3 = 60 g/mole, so:
48 + c = 60 g/mole
c = 12 g/mole
The molar mass of XO2 would be:
1 X = 12
2 O = 32
Molar mass = 44 grams/mole, same as carbon dioxide. Carbon's molar mass is 12 grams.
