How many grams are in 5.66 mol of CaCO3?
The formula is
Number of moles = [Mass of sample (g)] / [Relative molecular mass (g/mol)]
The RMM of calcium carbonate is 100 g/mol.
The mass is therefore 100 (g/mol) * 5.66 (mol) = 566g.
You should know the mass of CaCo3 and that will be 217 g.
So when you convert it it would be:
In 1 mole=217g
And we have 5.66 mol so far
You have to do is 217 times 5.66 you get=1228.22
Since we started by three significant figures your answer would be in whole number and that would be 1228 mol.
This is totally wrong.
1 mol of(NOT CaCo3) has a mass of 100 g, NOT 217 g
5.66 mol of CaCO3 will have a mass of 566 g
NOT 1228.22 mol, which isn't even a mass. This is just plain wrong, you start with 5.66 mol and end up with 1228.22 mol?
