<u>Answers:</u>
a. 131.85 grams
b. 134.69 grams
To calculate the number of grams in the number of moles given for each compound, consider the formula:
<em>Moles = No. of grams / molar mass</em>
Therefore, to find the gram it will become:
<em>No. of grams = moles x molar mass</em>
a. 0.410 mol of NaCl (sodium chloride)
Molar mass of NaCl = (286.14 + 35.45) = 321.59
No. of grams = moles x molar mass
No. of grams = 0.410 x 321.59 = 131.85 grams
b. 4.80 mol of C2H4 (ethylene)
Molar mass of C2H4 = (12.01 x 2) + (1.01 x 4) = 28.06
No. of grams = moles x molar mass
No. of grams = 4.80 x 28.06 = 134.69 grams
