The molecular mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate is 246.46 g/mol. What weight is needed to obtain 0.150 moles?

Respuesta :

Answer : The mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate needed are, 36.969 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate = 0.150 mole

Molar mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate = 246.46 g/mole

Formula used :

[tex]\text{Mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate}=\text{Moles of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate}\times {\text{Molar mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate}[/tex]

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

[tex]\text{Mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate}=0.150mole\times 246.46g/mole[/tex]

[tex]\text{Mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate}=36.969g[/tex]

Therefore, the mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate needed are, 36.969 grams.
