Question

Convert into mole: a) 12gms of Oxygen gas b) 20 gms of Water​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solution

(a) Molecular weight of oxygen in grams = 32 g of oxygen= one mole of oxygen gas

Thus, 12 g of oxygen=

32

​

×12=0.375 moles

(b) Molecular weight of water (H

​

O) in grams= 2+ 16=18 g=one mole of water

Thus, 20 g of water=

18

​

×20=1.111 moles

(c) Molecular weight of carbon dioxide (CO

​

) in grams=12+2×16=44 g=one mole of carbon dioxide

Thus, 22 g of carbon dioxide =

44
