How many moles are contained in 325 gram sample of ammonium dichromate (NH4)2Cr2O7
![How many moles are contained in 325 gram sample of ammonium dichromate NH42Cr2O7 class=](https://us-static.z-dn.net/files/d9d/93090a4816dead95419b6561c8b108af.png)
Mole can be defined as the number of molar mass units of the compound in the sample. The moles of ammonium dichromate in 325 grams sample is 1.29 mol.
The molar mass can be given as the mass of each atom in the formula unit. The molar mass of ammonium chromate is given as:
[tex]\rm (NH_4)_2Cr_2O_7=2(N)+4\;\times\;2(H)+2(Cr)+7(O)[/tex]
Substituting the mass of each atom to identify the molar mass of ammonium chromate:
[tex]\rm (NH_4)_2Cr_2O_7=2(14)+4\;\times\;2(1)+2(52)+7(16)\\ (NH_4)_2Cr_2O_7=28+8+104+112\\ (NH_4)_2Cr_2O_7=252 \;g/mol[/tex]
The molar mass of ammonium dichromate s 252 g/mol. The moles of the compound in 325 g is given as:
[tex]\rm Moles=\dfrac{mass}{molar\;mass} \\\\Moles=\dfrac{325\;g}{252\;g/mol}\\\\ Moles=1.29\;mol[/tex]
The moles of ammonium dichromate in the sample are 1.29 mol. Thus, option c is correct.
