Answer:

105.86 grams of AuCl3, if the compound has 6.3 x10^23 atoms of Cl.

Explanation:

We are given that the compound has 6.3 x10^23 atoms of Cl.

To find how many molecules of AuCl3 are in the given compound, we divide the compound by 3, i.e;


(6.3 * 10^(23) )/(3) =
2.1* 10^(23) molecules of AuCl3.

Now, as we know that 1 mole of AuCI3 has
6.022 * 10^(23) molecules.

So, the moles that our compound has is given by;

=
(2.1 * 10^(23) )/(6.022 * 10^(23) ) =
(2.1)/(6.022) = 0.349 mole AuCI3

Also, the molar mass of AuCI3 = 303.33 g/mole

So, the molar mass of 0.349 moles AuCI3 =
303.33 * 0.349

= 105.86 g

Hence, 105.86 grams of AuCl3, if the compound has 6.3 x10^23 atoms of Cl.
