Hello)

n (C2H5NO2) = m (C2H5NO2) / M (C2H5NO2)

M (C2H5NO2) = 75g/mol

n=160/75=2,13mol

Shaylee Simpson · Answer 2

TO calculate for the number of moles, all we have to do is to take the ratio of mass over molar mass.

Glycine has a molecular formula of C2H5NO2 with a molar mass of 75.07 g/mol.

Therefore:

number of moles = 160 g / (75.07 g / mol)

number of moles = 2.13 moles
