Find the number of moles of sodium atoms in $6.9 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg}\left(\right.$ Atomic mass $\left.=23 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\right)$
  1. 1.5
  2. 0.3
  3. 3.0
  4. 2.3

Solution

Number of moles $\begin{aligned} & =\frac{\text { Mass of a substance }}{\text { Molar mass of the substance }} \\ & =\frac{6.9 \times 10^{-2} \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}}{23 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}}=3 \mathrm{moles} \end{aligned}$
