1. Find the Molar Mass of SO₂
* Sulfur (S) has an atomic mass of approximately 32.07 g/mol
* Oxygen (O) has an atomic mass of approximately 16.00 g/mol
* SO₂ has one sulfur atom and two oxygen atoms, so its molar mass is: 32.07 g/mol + (2 * 16.00 g/mol) = 64.07 g/mol
2. Use the Conversion Factor
* 1 mol of SO₂ weighs 64.07 g.
3. Calculate the Mass
* Multiply the number of moles by the molar mass: 2.65 mol SO₂ * 64.07 g/mol = 169.69 g
Therefore, there are approximately 169.69 grams in 2.65 mol of SO₂.
