  • Reading a Periodic Table

Stoichiometry

  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

170 g H₂O₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O₂ - 2(1.01) + 2(16.00) = 34.02 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:
    \displaystyle 170 \ g \ H_2O_2((1 \ mol \ H_2O_2)/(34.02 \ g \ H_2O_2))
  2. Divide:
    \displaystyle 4.99706 \ mol \ H_2O_2

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.

4.99706 mol H₂O₂ ≈ 5.0 mol H₂O₂
