Answer:
0.241 × 10³⁰ molecules
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Cr(HCO₃)₃ = 9.273 × 10⁷ g
Number of molecules = ?
Solution:
Number of moles = 9.273 × 10⁷ g/ 235 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.04× 10⁷ mol
The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
For example,
18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water
1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
For 0.04× 10⁷ moles of Cr(HCO₃)₃:
0.04× 10⁷ moles × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / 1 mol
0.241 × 10³⁰ molecules
