Question

Find the number of moles of argon in 354g of argon.

Answer 1

ANSWER

The number of moles of argon in 354g of argon is 8.615 moles

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given parameters

• Mass of argon = 354g

,

• The molar mass of argon = 39.948g/mol

To find the number of moles, we need to apply the mole formula

$\text{Mole = }\frac{\text{ reacting mass}}{\text{ molar mass}}$

The next thing is to substitute the above parameters into the formula

$\begin{gathered} \text{Mole = }\frac{354}{39.948} \\ \text{mole = 8.615 moles} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the number of moles of argon in 354g of argon is 8.615 moles
