Calculate the following question
in the discussion room on
classesra
• 1. Calculate the mass of 1.5 moles of Na2O
• 2. Calculate the number of ions in 0.5 moles of Cu
• 3. Calculate the number of moles in 375g of CaCO3
• 4. Calculate the number of molecules in 15 moles of H2O
The correct answers.
1. Calculate the mass of 1.5 moles of Na2O
Mr of Na2O = 62g/mole
mass = 1.5 x 62 = 93g
2.
0.5 x (6.02 x 1023)
number of ions = 3.01 x 1023
3.
Mr of CaCO3 = 100
number of moles in CaCO3 = 375 ÷ 100 = 3.75 moles
4.
15 x (6.02 x 1023)
number of molecules of H2O90.3 x 1023 = 9.03 x 1024
