calculate the number of moles , the number of molecules, number of atom present in 0.051 gram of a Aluminium oxide
Answers
Question:-
FinD:
- The no. of moles.
- The no. of molecules
- The no. of atoms
in 0.051 g of Aluminium oxide (That is Al2O3)
Required Answer:-
GiveN mass of Aluminium oxide = 0.051 g
Molecular mass = 2 × 27 + 3 × 16 = 102
No. of moles of Al2O3:
= Given Mass / Molecular mass
= 0.051 g / 102 g
= 0.0005 moles of Al2O3
We know that, 1 mole of any compound contains 6.022 × 10²³ molecules. Then
No. of molecules in 0.0005 moles Al2O3:
= 0.0005 × 6.022 × 10²³
= 0.003011 × 10²³
= 3.011 × 10²⁰ molecules of Al2O3
1 molecule of Aluminium oxide contains 2 atoms of Aluminium and 3 atoms of oxygen. Total there is 5 atoms in each molecule.
No. of atoms in 1 molecule of Al2O3:
= 3.011 × 10²⁰ × 5
= 15.055 × 10²⁰
= 1.5055 × 10²¹ atoms in total.
Hence:-
- No. of moles = 0.0005 moles
- No. of molecules = 3.011 × 10²⁰ molecules
- No. of atoms = 1.5055 × 10²¹ atoms
