The molecular weight of table salt, NaCl, is 58.5 g/mol. A tablespoon of salt weighs 6.37 grams. Calculate the number of moles of salt in one tablespoon. Next, cancel like terms and units: Which of the following shows the correct terms and units canceled?
A>N>S: the 2nd one

Respuesta :

Answer:

The number of moles of salt in one tablespoon is = 0.11 mole

Grams cancel each other.

Explanation:

Moles : It is the unit of quantity . It is the mass of the substance present in exactly 12g of C-12.

[tex]moles=\frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}[/tex]

Moles Calculation:

Given mass = 6.37  gram

Molar mass = 58.5 g/mol

[tex]moles=\frac{6.37}{58.5}[/tex]

= 0.1088

= 0.11 mole

Units calculation

[tex]moles=\frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}[/tex]

[tex]moles=\frac{g}{g/mole}[/tex]

[tex]moles=\frac{g}{g}\times mole[/tex]

g ang g cancels each other

moles = moles

Hence unit = gram (g ) cancel each other.

Answer:

the second one
