Answer:

1286.8g

Step-by-step explanation:

Moles = mass ÷ Mr of compound

Rearrange this formula to find the mass in grams of I₂:

moles × Mr of compound = mass

moles = 5.07

We can find the Mr of I₂ by adding up the atomic masses of each element:

The atomic mass of I is 126.9, so the Mr of I₂:

126.9 + 126.9 = 253.8

Hence, the mass is:

5.07 × 253.8 = 1286.8g (to 1dp)
