To determine the number of moles in each substance, we need to divide the mass of the substance by its molar mass.

67.42 g Si:

The molar mass of Si is 28.0855 g/mol (rounded to 4 decimal places). Therefore, the number of moles of Si is:

67.42 g / 28.0855 g/mol = 2.3992 mol (rounded to 4 decimal places).

11.82 g gold:

The molar mass of gold is 196.9665 g/mol (rounded to 4 decimal places). Therefore, the number of moles of gold is:

11.82 g / 196.9665 g/mol = 0.060 mol (rounded to 3 decimal places).

28.8 g Br₂:

The molar mass of Br₂ is 159.808 g/mol (rounded to 3 decimal places). Therefore, the number of moles of Br₂ is:

28.8 g / 159.808 g/mol = 0.1803 mol (rounded to 4 decimal places).

Therefore, the number of moles in each substance is:

2.3992 mol Si

0.060 mol gold

0.1803 mol Br₂.
