How many moles are equivalent to 3.58x1023 formula units of ZnCl2? a. 0.555 mol ZnCl2 c. 0.621 mol ZnCl2 b. 1 mol ZnCl2 d. 0.595 mol ZnCl2

Respuesta :

Answer:

There are approximately d. 0.595 mol of ZnCl₂ in 3.58×10²³ formula units.

Explanation:

Consider the Avogadro's Constant [tex]N_A[/tex] or equivalently, [tex]L[/tex]:

[tex]N_A \approx \rm 6.02\times 10^{23}\;mol^{-1}[/tex].

In other words, there are [tex]\rm 6.02\times 10^{23}\;mol^{-1}[/tex] constituent particles (Wikipedia) in each mole of a substance. In this case,

  • Zinc chloride [tex]\rm ZnCl_2[/tex] is the substance, and
  • [tex]\rm ZnCl_2[/tex] formula units are the constituents.

[tex]N = 3.58\times 10^{23}[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle n = \frac{N}{N_A} =\rm \frac{3.58\times 10^{23}}{6.02\times 10^{23}\;mol^{-1}} = 0.595\;mol[/tex].
