Answer:
3056.25g
Explanation:
Problem here is to find the mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ to weigh out to make for the number of moles.
Given;
Number of moles = 16.3moles
Unknown:
Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = ?
Solution:
To find the mass of Cu(NO₃)₂, use the expression below;
Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = number of moles x molar mass
Let's find the molar mass;
Cu(NO₃)₂ = 63.5 + 2[14 + 3(16)]
= 63.5 + 2(62)
= 187.5g/mol
Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = 16.3 x 187.5 = 3056.25g
