Question

calculate no. of moles in 1 metric ton of iron

Answer 1

1 metric ton =1000000 grams

Number of moles=given mass in grams/molar mass of iron

n=1000000/56

n=17857.14

Answer 2

Concept:

• Mole concept
• Avogadro's number
• Weight conversion
• Atomic mass

Given:

• Mass of iron = 1 metric ton = 1000 kg = 10^6 g
• Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Find:

• The number of moles in 1 metric ton of iron

Solution:

According to the mole concept, the molar mass of an atom is the total mass of one mole of atoms.

1 mole of an entity contains 6.022*10^23 particles

We can calculate the number of moles by dividing the given mass by the molar mass.

Number of mass = w/m = 10^6 g /56 g/mol = 17857 mol

The number of moles in 1 metric ton of iron is 17857.
