In this reaction had a mass of 8.159 g. The initial mass of the metal nitrate sample was 9.835 g. Assuming that the reaction goes to completion, the number of moles of the sulfate salt produced is 1 mole.
The reaction is given as :
M(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ ------> 2NaNO₃ + MSO₄
so, it is clear that , 1 mole of metal nitrate produces 1 mole of metal sulphate.
mass of metal nitrate = 9.835 g
mass of metal sulfate = 8.158 g
moles of metal nitrate = moles of the metal sulfate.
moles = mass / molar mass
Thus, the moles of MSO₄ = 1 mole.
