Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?
Atomic mass of sodium = 23 u
Gram atomic mass of sodium = 23 g
1 mole or 23 g of sodium has = 6.022 x 1023 atom
100 g of sodium has = 6.022x1023 / 23 x 100
= 2.618 x 1024 atom
Atomic mass of Ison (fe) = 56 u
Gram atomic mass of fe = 56 g
1 mole of fe has = 6.022 x 1023 atom
56 g of fe = 6.022 x 1023 atom
100 g of fe = 6.022 x 1023 / 56 x 100
= 1.075 x 1024 atom
Hence, 100 gram of Na has more number of atoms than 100 gram of fe.
Convert into mole.
(a) 12 g of oxygen gas
(b) 20 g of water
(c) 22 g of carbon dioxide.
In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
