Concept Introduction:
Number of moles is related to mass and molar mass as follows:
Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.
According to Avogadro’s law, 1 mole of a substance contains
Thus, number of molecules can be calculated from number of moles using the following conversion factor:

Explanation of Solution
Mass of aluminium is 5 g and molar mass of Al is 26.98 g/mol thus, number of moles can be calculated as follows:
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Number of moles of iron is 0.00250 mol and molar mass of Fe is 55.845 g/mol thus, mass can be calculated as follows:
Putting the values,
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Number of atoms of copper is
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Molar mass of copper is 63.546 g/mol thus, mass of copper is:
Mass of magnesium is 0.00250 g and molar mass of Mg is 24.305 g/mol thus, number of moles can be calculated as follows:
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Number of moles of sodium is
Putting the values,
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Number of atoms of uranium is
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Molar mass of uranium is 238.023 g/mol thus, mass of uranium is:

- The compound As2I4 is synthesized by reaction of arsenic metal with arsenic triiodide. If a solid cubic block of arsenic (d = 5.72 g/cm3) that is 3.00 cm on edge is allowed to react with 1.01 1024 molecules of arsenic triiodide, what mass of As2I4 can be prepared? If the percent yield of As2I4 was 75.6%, what mass of As2I4 was actually isolated?arrow_forwardThe present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forwardA Commercial sodium "hydrosulfite" is 90.1% Na2S2O4. The sequence of reactions used to prepare the compound is Zn(s) + 2 SO2(g) ZnS2O4(s) ZnS2O4(s) + Na2CO3(aq) ZnCO3(s) + Na2S2O4(aq) (a) What mass of pure Na2S2O4 can be prepared from 125 kg of Zn, 500. g of SO2, and an excess of Na2CO3?
