Question 2 • Chemistry

Chandra wants to know how many moles are contained in 150 point 0 g CCl sub 4 (carbon tetrachloride). What quantity of CCl sub 4 should she use to make this conversion?

Answer
A
molar mass
B
mole ratio
C
number of moles
D
the number of atoms

Explanation

To convert a sample’s mass in grams to moles, divide the mass by the substance’s molar mass, measured in grams per mole. Chandra should therefore use the molar mass of CCl₄; a mole ratio is used for converting between substances in a chemical reaction, not for converting grams to moles.
