Explanation:

Step 1: Define

26.29 g FeCl₃ (iron (III) chloride)

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of Fe - 55.85 g/mol

Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol

Molar Mass of FeCl₃ - 55.85 + 3(35.45) = 162.2 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:                              [tex]\displaystyle 26.29 \ g \ FeCl_3(\frac{1 \ mol \ FeCl_3}{162.2 \ g \ FeCl_3})[/tex]
  2. Multiply:                            [tex]\displaystyle 0.162084 \ moles \ FeCl_3[/tex]

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 4 sig figs.

0.162084 mol FeCl₃ ≈ 0.1621 mol FeCl₃
