Answers:

a. 131.85 grams

b. 134.69 grams

To calculate the number of grams in the number of moles given for each compound, consider the formula:

Moles = No. of grams / molar mass

Therefore, to find the gram it will become:

No. of grams = moles x molar mass

a.  0.410 mol of NaCl (sodium chloride)

Molar mass of NaCl = (286.14 + 35.45) = 321.59

No. of grams = moles x molar mass

No. of grams = 0.410 x 321.59 = 131.85 grams

b. 4.80 mol of C2H4 (ethylene)

Molar mass of C2H4 = (12.01 x 2) + (1.01 x 4) = 28.06

No. of grams = moles x molar mass

No. of grams = 4.80 x 28.06 = 134.69 grams

Answer:

Mass in gram of NaCl = 23.96 g

Mass in gram of C2H4 = 134.64 g

Part 1.

Given data:

Moles of NaCl =0.42 mol

Molecular mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

Mass in grams of NaCl = ?

Solution:

The formula of number of moles = Mass in grams / Molecular mass

For the mass in grams = Molecular mass × Number of moles

By putting the given values in second formula:

Mass in grams of NaCl = 58.44 × 0.41

                                    =  23.96 g

So the sodium chloride  is 0.42 molar it means its mass in gram is 23.96.

Part 2.

Given data:

Moles of C2H4 = 4.80  mol

Molecular mass of C2H4 = 28.05 g/mol

Mass in grams of C2H4 = ?

Solution:

The formula of number of moles =  Mass in grams / Molecular mass

For the mass in grams = Molecular mass × Number of moles

By putting the given values in second formula:

Mass in grams of C2H4 = 28.05 × 4.8

                                    =  134.64 g

So 134.64 grams of ethylene contains 4.8 mol of ethylene.
