Answer: The number of moles of
MgS_2O_3 is 1.36 moles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:


\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of
MgS_2O_3 = 185 g

Molar mass of
MgS_2O_3 = 136.43 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:


\text{Moles of }MgS_2O_3=(185g)/(136.43g/mol)=1.36mol

Hence, the number of moles of
MgS_2O_3 is 1.36 moles.
