Answer:
Aluminium atoms = 4.13 *10^22 aluminium atoms
The correct answer is E
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of Al2O3 = 3.50 grams
Molar mass of Al2O3 = 101.96 g/mol
Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 /mol
Step 2: Calculate moles Al2O3
Moles Al2O3 = mass Al2O3 / molar mass Al2O3
Moles Al2O3 = 3.50 grams / 101.96 g/mol
Moles Al2O3 = 0.0343 moles
Step 3: Calculate moles Aluminium
In 1 mol Al2O3 we have 2 moles Al
in 0.0343 moles Al2O3 we have 2*0.0343 = 0.0686 moles Al
Step 4: Calculate aluminium atoms
Aluminium atoms = moles aluminium * Number of Avogadro
Aluminium atoms = 0.0686 * 6.022 * 10^23
Aluminium atoms = 4.13 *10^22 aluminium atoms
The correct answer is E
