Question

Calculate number of aluminum ions present in 0.051 g of aluminum oxide

Answer 1

Hey mate,

1 mole of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) = 2*27 + 3 * 16

= 102 g

i.e., 102 g of Al2O3 = 6.022 * 1023 molecules of Al2O3

Then, 0.051 g of Al2O3 contains =

= 3.011 * 1020 molecules of Al2O3

The number of aluminium ions (Al3+) present in one molecule of aluminium oxide is 2.

Therefore, the number of aluminium ions (Al3+) present in 3.011 * 1020 molecules (0.051 g ) of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) = 2 * 3.011 * 1020

= 6.022 * 1020

Hope it will help you.

Answer 2

HELLO MATE ⤵️⤵️⤵️

Molecular weight of Al2O3 = 102 g

102 g of Al2O3 contains 6.022X1023 molecules

0.051g of Al2O3 contain X number of molecules

X = 0.051 X 6.022X1023 /102 = 0.003 X 1020

X = 3 X 1020

1 molecule of Al2O3 contains – 2 Al+3ions

3 X 1020 molecules contains – 2 X 3 X 1020

= 6 X 1020 Al+3 ions ∴0.051 g of Al2O3 contains 6 X 1020 Al+3 ions
