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
