Answer:
salt mass=102.5gCrCl3.6H2O
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello !
To know how much CrCl3.6H2O we need, we follow the steps below
First we have to know what the mass of the compound is
Cr = 52g / mol
Cl = 35.5g / mol
H = 1g / mol
O = 16g / mol
We calculate the mass
52+ (35.5 * 3) + 6 * (2 * 1 + 16) = 266.5g
We have 20g Cr, so we calculate the amount of salt:
20gCr * (266.5g salt / 52gCr) = 102.5gCrCl3.6H2O
salt mass=102.5gCrCl3.6H2O
