hey there!:

atomic mass :

C = 12.01070 amu

Cl = 35.4530 amu

Molar mass:

CCl4 = ( 1 * 12.01070 ) + ( 35.4530 *4 ) = 153.8227 g/mol


Therefore:

n = mass of solute / molar mass

n = 150.0 /
153.8227

n = 0.975 moles

hope this helps!

Answer:

Quantities of CCl₄ = 153. 8227 g/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking process:

Data:

The molar mass of CCl₄ is determined by adding the relative atomic masses in the compound. In this case:

Molar mass of chlorine, Cl = 35.453 amu (atomic mass units) or 35.453 g/mol

Molar mass of carbon, C = 12.0107 amu (lamu (atomic mass units) or 12.0107g/mol

Remember, 1 mole or carbon contains 12.0107 amu

The compouns contains: 1 carbion atom= 12.0107g/mol

4 cholrine atoms = 4 * 35.453 g/mol

= 141. 812 g/mol

Adding the atomic masses to get the total molecular mass of CCl₄ = 12.0107 + 4 (35.453) = 153. 8227 g/mol

Butn number of moles in 150.0g CCl4 =
(mass (g))/(molar mass (g/mol))

=
(150.0g)/(153.8227g/mol)

= 0.975 moles

Therefore, 150.0g CCl4 makes 0.975 moles

The student used 153. 8227 g/mol CCl₄ to make the conversion
