Number of moles = Mass/Formula Mass

Fm = 200

Number of Moles = 256/200

The number of moles in C4F8 is 1.28

Hope this helps :) ~

Answer:

1.325 moles of
C_(4)F_(8) are in 265 g of
C_(4)F_(8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of moles of a compound=(mass of the compound)/(molar mass of the compound)

Molar mass of
C_(4)F_(8) =
(4* atomic mass of C)+(8* atomic mass of F) or
(4* 12g)+(8* 19g) or 200 g.

So number of moles of
C_(4)F_(8) in 265 g of
C_(4)F_(8) is (265g/200g) or 1.325 moles
