Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    What is 1 mole worth in scientific notation using the "e" with 3 sig figs? (no spaces)

    Explanation
    The scientific notation is a way to express very large or very small numbers in a more compact form. In this case, the number 6.02e23 represents 6.02 multiplied by 10 raised to the power of 23. This notation is commonly used in scientific calculations and measurements, and it is particularly useful when dealing with extremely large or small quantities. Therefore, 6.02e23 is the scientific notation for 1 mole, which is a fundamental unit in chemistry representing a specific number of particles.

    What scientist gets credit for coming up with the number of particles in 1 mole which is  6.02214076e23?  (from the LESSON -  Mole Concept)

    • A.

      Amedeo Avogadro

    • B.

      Albert Einstein

    • C.

      Alexander Bell

    • D.

      Bill Nye the Science Guy

    Correct Answer
    A. Amedeo Avogadro
    Explanation
    Amedeo Avogadro is credited with coming up with the number of particles in 1 mole, which is 6.02214076e23. This number is known as Avogadro's number and it represents the number of atoms, molecules, or ions in one mole of a substance. Avogadro's work was based on his hypothesis that equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain the same number of particles. His contribution to the development of the mole concept and his understanding of the relationship between the mass and number of particles in a substance have made him a significant figure in the field of chemistry.

  • 3. 

    How many atoms are in 1 mole of silver, Ag? (Group 11)

    • A.

      108

    • B.

      47

    • C.

      6.02e23

    • D.

      107.8682

    Correct Answer
    C. 6.02e23
    Explanation
    One mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of particles, which is approximately 6.02e23. Therefore, 1 mole of silver (Ag) contains 6.02e23 atoms.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    How many molecules are in 1 mole of water?

    Correct Answer
    6.02e23
    Explanation
    A mole is a unit used to measure the amount of a substance. In chemistry, it is defined as the amount of a substance that contains the same number of particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) as there are atoms in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12. This number is known as Avogadro's number and is approximately 6.02 x 10^23. Therefore, 1 mole of water contains 6.02 x 10^23 molecules of water.

  • 5. 

    Click all the possible units for molar mass.

    • A.

      Grams/mole

    • B.

      Mole/gram

    • C.

      Mol/g

    • D.

      G/mol

    • E.

      Grams

    • F.

      G

    • G.

      Grams per mole

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Grams/mole
    D. G/mol
    G. Grams per mole
    Explanation
    The molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance. It is expressed in units of grams per mole (grams/mole), g/mol, or grams per mole. These units indicate the amount of grams of a substance in one mole of that substance. Therefore, all three units listed in the answer (grams/mole, g/mol, grams per mole) are correct representations of the molar mass.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Define molar mass.

    • A.

      The mass, in grams, of 1 mole of a substance

    • B.

      The mass, in grams, of 1 mole of moles

    • C.

      Atomic mass

    • D.

      The mass of 1 atom

    Correct Answer
    A. The mass, in grams, of 1 mole of a substance
    Explanation
    Molar mass is defined as the mass, in grams, of 1 mole of a substance. It is a measurement used in chemistry to determine the amount of a substance present in a given sample. Molar mass is calculated by summing the atomic masses of all the atoms in a molecule or formula unit. It is expressed in grams per mole (g/mol) and is used in various calculations, such as determining the number of moles or the mass of a substance in a chemical reaction.

    What is the abbreviated/shortened way to write mole?

    Correct Answer
    mol
    Explanation
    The abbreviated/shortened way to write mole is "mol".

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    How do chemists use the mole?

    • A.

      It is a way for scientist to measure things that are so small we can't see them

    • B.

      It is a way to make chemistry students hate chemistry

    • C.

      It is a way for scientist to measure very large molecules

    • D.

      It is a way for chemists to stay busy and get paid lots of money

    Correct Answer
    A. It is a way for scientist to measure things that are so small we can't see them
    Explanation
    The mole is a unit of measurement used by chemists to count and quantify atoms, molecules, and other particles that are too small to be seen individually. By using the mole, scientists can accurately measure and compare the amounts of substances involved in chemical reactions and processes. This allows them to understand and predict the behavior of matter at the atomic and molecular level.

    What is the mass of two moles of water? You DON'T need a calculator to answer this.

    Correct Answer
    36g
    Explanation
    The molar mass of water (H2O) is approximately 18 g/mol. Therefore, the mass of two moles of water can be calculated by multiplying the molar mass by the number of moles, which gives us 18 g/mol x 2 mol = 36 g.

    The molar mass of hydrogen is 1.00794 grams.   How many hydrogen atoms are in 1.00794 grams of hydrogen?

    Correct Answer
    6.02e23
    Explanation
    The answer is 6.02e23 because this number represents Avogadro's number, which is the number of atoms or molecules in one mole of a substance. Since the molar mass of hydrogen is given as 1.00794 grams, this means that 1 mole of hydrogen would weigh 1.00794 grams. Therefore, there would be 6.02e23 hydrogen atoms in 1.00794 grams of hydrogen, as this is the number of atoms in one mole of any substance.
