Answer:
3.51× 10²³ formula units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Mass of CaO = 32.7 g
Number of formula units = ?
Solution:
First of all we will calculate the number of moles.
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 32.7 g/ 56.1 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.583 mol
Number of formula units:
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ formula units
0.583 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ formula units / 1 mol
3.51× 10²³ formula units
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
