Question

A kilogram of iron contains how many moles of iron

Answer 1

Answer: Moles of iron for the given amount is 17.90 moles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 1 kg of iron and we need to find the moles of it. To calculate the moles, we use the following equation:

`\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}`

Mass of iron given = 1kg = 1000 grams (Conversion Factor: 1 kg = 1000g)

Molar mass of iron = 55.85g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

`\text{Moles of iron}=(1000g)/(55.85g/mol)\\\\\text{Moles of iron}=17.90mol`

Hence, moles of iron for the given amount is 17.90 moles.
