To calculate the number of moles of a substance, divide the amount of substance with the molar mass. The molar mass of nitrogen is approximately 14 grams per mole. Divide the given 21.2 g of N with the molar mass. The division will give an answer of 1.514 moles. Thus, there are approximately 1.514 moles of nitrogen in the sample.

Hello!

If a sample contains 21.2 g N, how many moles of N does it contain?

0.66 mol

1.51 mol

14.01 mol

297.01 mol

We have the following data:

m (mass) = 21.2 g

MM (Molar mass of Nitrogen) = 14 g / mol

n (number of moles) = ?

Formula:


n = (m)/(MM)

Solving:


n = (m)/(MM)


n = (21.2\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g)/(14\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/mol)


\boxed{\boxed{n\approx 1.51\:mol}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:

1.51 mol
