Answer:

a. 0.119mol Kr

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must understand that;

Mass = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of Kr = 83.3g/mol

Ar = 40g/mol

He = 4g/mol

Ne = 20.18g/mol

a0.119 mol Kr mass = 0.119 x 83.3 = 9.9g

b 0.400 mol Ar mass = 0.4 x 40 = 16g

C 1.25 mol He mass = 1.25 x 4 = 5g

d 2.02 mol Ne mass = 2.02 x 20.18 = 40.8

Krypton is the answer
