Example 2
How many moles are contained in 36 g of water?
(atomic weights H=1, O=16).
- One mole is the molecular weight expressed in grams.
- One mole of H O = (2×1) + 16 = 18 g
2
1 Mole 18 g
?? Mole 36 g
No. of moles = (36×1)/18 = 2 moles
Example 1
Determine the number of molecules of H2O in 3 moles H2O
