Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

3.77 mol K₃N

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol

Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of K₃N - 3(39.10) + 14.01 = 131.31 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

1. Set up:
   `\displaystyle 3.77 \ mol \ K_3N((131.31 \ g \ K_3N)/(1 \ mol \ K_3N))`
2. Multiply/Divide:
   `\displaystyle 495.039 \ g \ K_3N`

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

495.039 g K₃N ≈ 495 g K₃N
