Answer:

0.31 mole

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of SF6 = 45.0 g

Number of mole of SF6 =..?

Next, we shall determine the molar mass of SF6.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of SF6 = 32 + (19×6)

Molar mass of SF6 = 32 + 114

Molar mass of SF6 = 146 g/mol

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole in 45 g of SF6 as follow:

Molar mass of SF6 = 146 g/mol

Mass of SF6 = 45.0 g

Number of mole of SF6 =..?

Number of mole = mass /Molar mass

Number of mole of SF6 = 45 /146

Number of mole of SF6 = 0.31 mol

Therefore, 0.31 mol is present in 45 g of SF6.
