    Mass in gram of NaCl = 23.96 g

    Mass in gram of C2H4 = 134.64 g

    Part 1.

    Given dа ta:

    Moles of NaCl = 0.42 mol

    Molecular mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

    Mass in grams of NaCl = ?

    Solution:

    The formula of number of moles = Mass in grams / Molecular mass

    For the mass in grams = Molecular mass * Number of moles

    By putting the given values in second formula:

    Mass in grams of NaCl = 58.44 * 0.41

    = 23.96 g

    So the sodium chloride is 0.42 molar it means its mass in gram is 23.96.

    Part 2.

    Given dа ta:

    Moles of C2H4 = 4.80 mol

    Molecular mass of C2H4 = 28.05 g/mol

    Mass in grams of C2H4 = ?

    Solution:

    The formula of number of moles = Mass in grams / Molecular mass

    For the mass in grams = Molecular mass * Number of moles

    By putting the given values in second formula:

    Mass in grams of C2H4 = 28.05 * 4.8

    = 134.64 g

    So 134.64 grams of ethylene contains 4.8 mol of ethylene.

    Answers:

    a. 131.85 grams

    b. 134.69 grams

    To calculate the number of grams in the number of moles given for each compound, consider the formula:

    Moles = No. of grams / molar mass

    Therefore, to find the gram it will become:

    No. of grams = moles x molar mass

    a. 0.410 mol of NaCl (sodium chloride)

    Molar mass of NaCl = (286.14 + 35.45) = 321.59

    No. of grams = moles x molar mass

    No. of grams = 0.410 x 321.59 = 131.85 grams

    b. 4.80 mol of C2H4 (ethylene)

    Molar mass of C2H4 = (12.01 x 2) + (1.01 x 4) = 28.06

    No. of grams = moles x molar mass

    No. of grams = 4.80 x 28.06 = 134.69 grams
