Ans: Mass of NaBr = 432 g

Given:

# moles of NaBr = 4.20 moles

To determine:

The mass corresponding to 4.20 moles of NaBr

Step-by-step explanation:

The # moles of a given substance is the ratio of its mass to molar mass

moles = mass (g)/molar mass (g.mol-1)------(1)

Molar mass of NaBr = 102.89 g/mol

Based on equation(1)

mass = moles * molar mass

= 4.20 moles * 102.89 g.mol-1 = 432 g
