How to find?
For solving this question, We need to know how to find moles of solution or any substance if a certain weight is given.
[tex] \boxed{ \sf{No. \: of \: moles = \frac{Given \: weight}{Molecular \: weight} }}[/tex]
Solution:
❍ Molecular weight of [tex]\sf{I_2}[/tex]
= 2 × 126.90
= 253.80
= 254 (approx.)
❍ Given weight: 12.7
Then, no. of moles,
⇛ No. of moles = 12.7 / 254
⇛ No. of moles = 0.05 moles
⚘ No. of moles of Iodine molecule in the given weight = 0.05 moles

Answer:
The answer is 0.05 mol
Explanation:
To find the number of moles (n) we use the formula
[tex]n = \frac{m}{M} [/tex]
Where
n is the number of moles
m is the mass of the substance
M is the molar mass
To find the number of moles we must first find the molar mass
Since iodine is a diatomic molecule
M( I ) = 127 × 2 = 254 g/mol
Mass of iodine = 12.7 g
So the number of moles in 12.7 g of iodine is
[tex]n = \frac{12.7 \: g}{254 \: g/mol} [/tex]
We have the final answer as
n = 0.05 mol
Hope this helps you
