How many mol are in 8.23 x 10^24 formula units of calcium carbonate

13.7 moles

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles calcium carbonate = ?

Formula units calcium carbonate= 8.23 × 10²⁴

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For 8.23 × 10²⁴ formula units:

one mole = 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

8.23 × 10²⁴ formula units × 1 mole /6.022 × 10²³ formula units

13.7 moles
