Molar mass O₂ = 16 x 2 = 32.0 g/mol

1 mol O₂--------------------------- 32.0 g
30.5 moles O₂-------------------- ? ( mass O₂)

mass O₂ = ( 30.5 ) x 32.0 / 1

mass O₂ = 976.0 / 1

= 976.0 grams of O₂

hope this helps!

Answer:

976g of
O_(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you should find the molar mass of the
O_(2):

Molar mass of
O_(2) = 2 * molar mass of O

Molar mass of
O_(2) = 2 * 16
(g)/(mol)

Molar mass of
O_(2) = 32
(g)/(mol)

Then you should use the conversion factor:


30.5molesO_(2)*(32gO_(2))/(1molO_(2))=976gO_(2)

That is in 30.5 moles of
O_(2) there are 976g of
O_(2)
