Question 9 What is the mass of: (a) 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms? (b) 0.5 mole of water molecules?
Answers
Question: What is the mass of 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms?
We have been given that mass of 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms.To solve this question, we have a formula which is given below.
- Mole = Mass(g) ÷ Atomic mass of atom
Step: Put the obtained values in formula.
Mole = Mass(g) ÷ Atomic mass of atom
0.2 = Mass ÷ 16
Mass = 0.2 mol × 16gmol^-1
Mass = 0.2 × 16 g
Mass = 3.2 g
Question: What is the mass of 0.5 mole of water molecules?
We have been given that 0.5 mole of water molecules. To solve this question, we have a formula which is given below.
- Mole = Mass(g) ÷ Atomic mass of atom
Step: Put the obtained values in formula.
Mole = Mass(g) ÷ molecular mass
0.5 = Mass ÷ 18 g mol^-1
Mass = 0.5 mol × 18 g mol^-1
Mass = 0.5 × 18 g
Mass = 9 g
Answer:
Explanation:
Answer 1
Mass of 1 mole of oxygen atoms = 16 g
Number of moles = 0.2 mole
Mass of oxygen = ??
Mass of water taken = no.of moles × moler mass of oxygen
Mass = 16 × 0.2
Mass = 3.2 g
Hence, mass of oxygen atoms is 3.2 grams.
Answer 2
(b) Mass of 1 mole of water molecule = 18 g
Number of moles = 0.5 mole
Mass of water = ??
Mass of water taken = no.of moles × moler mass of water
Mass = 0.5 × 18
Mass = 9 g
Hence, the mass of 0.5 mole of water is 9 g.
