Answer:

mass of Zn = 77.0 g

Step-by-step explanation:

In the sample you have the same moles of Zn and Ga.

The formula for moles is:


Mass = moles*MM \\

Where MM: Molar Mass or Atomic Mass for elements

AM(Ga) = 69.723 amu

AM(Zn) = 65.38 amu

moles of Ga =
(Mass)/(AM) = (82.1 g)/(69.723 amu) = 1.178 mole

mass of Zn =
moles*AM=1.178 mole*65.38amu = 77.0 g
