1. Find the molar mass of copper (Cu):
* Look up the atomic mass of copper on the periodic table. It's approximately 63.55 g/mol.
2. Use the formula:
* mass (g) = moles × molar mass (g/mol)
3. Plug in the values:
* mass (g) = 0.0420 mol × 63.55 g/mol
4. Calculate:
* mass (g) ≈ 2.67 g
Therefore, the mass of 0.0420 moles of copper is approximately 2.67 grams.
