1. Find the molar mass of Al₂S₃:
* Aluminum (Al) has a molar mass of 26.98 g/mol.
* Sulfur (S) has a molar mass of 32.07 g/mol.
* Al₂S₃ has 2 aluminum atoms and 3 sulfur atoms.
* Molar mass of Al₂S₃ = (2 * 26.98 g/mol) + (3 * 32.07 g/mol) = 150.17 g/mol
2. Use the formula: moles = mass / molar mass
* moles = 510 g / 150.17 g/mol
* moles ≈ 3.40 mol
Therefore, there are approximately 3.40 moles in 510 g of Al₂S₃.
