diatomic hydrogen is written as H2 (2.02 grams H2) <------- if each hydrogen atom is 1.01 grams, then two hydrogen atoms are 2.02 grams 2.0 moles H2 X 2.02 grams H2 ------------- (divide to cancel moles) = 4.04 grams/mole H2 ÷ one mole = 4.04 grams H2

Step-by-step explanation:

A diatomic molecule is defined as the molecule which contains two atoms.

For example, a
H_(2) molecule has two atoms of hydrogen.

Molar mass of a
H_(2) molecule is 2.0 g/mol. Therefore, calculate the mass of 2.0 moles of diatomic hydrogen as follows.

No. of moles =
\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

2.0 mol =
(mass)/(2.0 g/mol)

mass = 1 g

therefore, we can conclude that total mass of 2.0 moles of diatomic hydrogen is 1 g.
