i got it right on the exam!! :)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount of fluorine is ---- 1.25 mol.

What is the mass of given fluorine in grams?

Since

`Number of moles =(given mass of the substance)/(its molecular mass)`

To get the mass of the substance in grams, multiply the given number of moles with the molecular mass of the substance.

Hence, among the given options, the correct answer is the last option that is

Multiply the atomic mass of fluorine by 1.25.
