Question

Find the number of moles in 6120 ions of NaCl . Round your answer to two decimal places. Input your answer as 1.03E23, which is the same as 1.03 x 10^23

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

NaCl = Na⁺ + Cl⁻

6120 ions of NaCl will contain 3060 ions of Na⁺ and 3060 ions of Cl⁻ , forming 3060 molecules of NaCl .

6.02 x 10²³ molecules of NaCl = 1 mole

3060 molecules of NaCl = 3060 x 10⁻²³ / 6.02 moles

= 508.30 x 10⁻²³ moles

= 5.08 x 10⁻²¹ moles

Answer : 5.08E-21 moles .
