What is the mass of:
(a) 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms?
(b) 0.5 mole of water molecules?
(a) The atomic mass of oxygen (O) = 16 u.
The mass of 1 mole of oxygen atoms = 16g.
Now, 1 mole of oxygen atoms = 16g
So, 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms = 16 x 0.2g = 3.2g
Hence, 0.2 mole of oxygen atom = 3.2 g.
(b) The molecular mass of water (H20)= 18u,
The mass of 1 mole of water molecules = 18 g
Now, 1 mole of water molecules = 18g
0.5 mole of water molecules = 18 x 0.5g = 9g
Hence, 0.5 mole of water molecules = 9 g
