Kinsley Parrish · Answer 1

First you have to find the molar mass of the compound. In order to do this, you add together the molar masses of each element in the compound.

Then you divide your starting mass by the molar mass in order to get the amount of moles.

So your answer is 1.5 mols of NaOH

Riley Kent · Answer 2

MOlar mass of NaOH = 39.97 g

X moles = 60 g

X=60/39.97

X = 1.5 moles
