One mole of potassium sulfate contains: One mole of potassium sulfate contains: 3 moles of potassium. 2 moles of sulfur. 4 moles of oxygen. 1 mole of potassium. none of the above I don't know why its 4 SO4 contains 1 sulfur and 4 oxygen K2 means 2 potassium
Potassium sulfate |dw:1458074120496:dw|
yeah I know the formula symbol for potassium sulfate, my question is why is it 4 moles of oxygen?
K2SO4
|dw:1458074202613:dw|
@Photon336 thanks
let me give you another one
how many moles of each atom are in this compound? |dw:1458074380786:dw|
2 moles of hydrogen 1 mole of sulfur and 4 moles oxygen
Correct
what about the molar mass?
yeah i think they way they asked the questioned threw me off
2x 1.01+32+4x16.01= whatever that is
32.06*
hold on 1 sec
98.12
Correct. last one: if I have 12 grams of H2SO4 how many many moles do I have of that?
12gH2SO4x1mole/98.12gH2SO4= Would this be the correct formula for that?
yeah
thank god lol
if you notice \[12g*(\frac{ mol }{ 98g }) \]
notice something grams cancel out and in the numerator moles is left
.12229....=1.2 x 10^-1 moles of H2SO4
You're in good shape
thanks :)
