How many grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95x10^23 formula units?

211.63 g.

Explanation:

Particles could refer to atoms, molecules, formula units. Knowing that every one mole of a substance contains Avogadro's no. of molecules (NA = 6.022 x 10²³).

Using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

? mole → 8.95 x 10²³ molecules.

The no. of moles of magnesium acetate = (8.95 x 10²³ molecules) (1.0 mole) / (6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 1.486 mol.

∴ The grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95 x 10²³ formula units = n x molar mass = (1.486 mol) (142.394 g/mol) = 211.63 g.
