Answer

(a) 0.520 mol (b) 4.1 mol (c) 0.638 mol (d) 0.0922 mol

Work Step by Step

We find: (a) $\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium carbonate}}{\text{Molar mass of calcium carbonate}}$ $=\frac{52.0\,g}{100.0869\,g/mol}=0.520\,mol$ (b) $\text{Mass}=\text{Density}\times\text{Volume}=0.76\,g/mL\times250\,mL=190\,g$ $\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{\text{Molar mass of ethanol}}=\frac{190\,g}{46.07\,g/mol}=4.1\,mol$ (c) $\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}}{\text{Molar mass of carbon dioxide}}=\frac{28.1\,g}{44.01\,g/mol}$ $=0.638\,mol$ (d) $\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Number of molecules}}{\text{Avogadro number}}=\frac{5.55\times10^{22}}{6.022\times10^{23}}mol=0.0922\,mol$
