Question

How to calculate the number of molecules of s8 present in 16 grams of solid sulphur?

Answer 1

Answer:

mass of element / total mass

Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\green{answer!}$

To calculate molecular mass of sulphur:

Molecular mass of Sulphur (S8) = 8xMass of Sulphur = 8×32 = 256g

Mass given = 16g

Number of moles = mass given/ molar mass of sulphur

= 16/256 = 0.0625 moles

To calculate the number of molecules of sulphur in 16g of solid sulphur:

Number of molecules = Number of moles X Avogadro number

= 0.0625 x 6.022 x 10²³ molecules

= 3.763 x 10²² molecules
