Question

Calculate the following:

1. Mass of 4.3x10^-3 mol of lead
2. Mass of 3.8x10^22 antimony atoms
3. Number of atoms in 15.5 kg of tungsten

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given data:

Number of moles of lead = 4.3×10⁻³ mol

Mass of lead = ?

Solution:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of lead = 207.2 g/mol

Mass = 4.3×10⁻³ mol × 207.2 g/mol

Mass = 890.96 g

2) Given data:

Number of atoms of antimony = 3.8×10²² atoms

Mass of antimony = ?

Solution:

1 mole contain 6.022 ×10²³ atoms

3.8×10²² atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 ×10²³ atoms

0.63×10⁻¹ mol

0.063 mol

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of lead = 121.76 g/mol

Mass = 0.063 mol × 121.76 g/mol

Mass = 7.67 g

3) Given data:

Mass of tungsten = 15.5 Kg (15.5 kg × 1000 g/ 1kg = 15500 g)

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of tungsten:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15500 g / 183.84 g/mol

Number of moles = 84.3 mol

1 mole contain 6.022 ×10²³ atoms

84.3 mol × 6.022 ×10²³ atoms / 1mol

507.65 ×10²³ atoms
