Answer:

61.09 grams SmO

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of grams SmO, you need to multiply the moles by the molar mass of SmO. The molar mass is a ratio which represents the mass of SmO per every 1 mole. It is important to arrange the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (moles should be in the denominator). The final answer should have 4 sig figs like the given value (0.3672 = 4 sig figs).

Atomic Mass (Sm): 150.36 g/mol

Atomic Mass (O): 15.999 g/mol

Molar Mass (SmO): 150.36 g/mol + 15.999 g/mol

Molar Mass (SmO): 166.359 g/mol

0.3672 moles SmO 166.359 grams
-------------------------------- x -------------------------- = 61.09 grams SmO
1 mole
