Question

How many moles of sulfur are in 53.7 grams of sulfur?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2097 is the answer.

Explanation:

NO.OF.MOLES= MASS/ATOMIC MASS

THE ATOMICITY OF SULPHUR IS 8 AND ITS MASS NUMBER IS 32.

SO, THE ATOMIC MASS IS 256

NO.OF.MOLES= 53.7/256

= 537/2560

= 0.2097

Answer 2

1.674 moles of sulfur in 53.7 grams of sulfur

Sulfur is an essential element that is denoted as S with an atomic number of 16. They can be found in many different forms such as crystalline or powder. It has an atomic mass of 32.065 u.  

Moles are a type of unit measurement present in the system. It showcases the number of ions or atoms present with the avogadro's number.

Here the atomic mass of sulfur is 32.065 u

The given mass of sulfur is 53.7 g

Moles of an element are measured as = Given the mass of the element/ atomic mass of the element

Moles of sulfur are measured as = 53.7 g/ 32.065 g/mol

Moles of sulfur are measured as = 1.674 mol ( rounded of values)

Therefore, 1.674 moles of sulfur are in 53.7 grams of sulfur
