  • Calculating Moles of Oxygen (O2): A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the number of moles in 64 grams of oxygen (O2):

    1. Find the molar mass of O2:

    * Oxygen has an atomic mass of approximately 16 g/mol.

    * O2 has two oxygen atoms, so its molar mass is 16 g/mol * 2 = 32 g/mol

    2. Use the formula:

    * Moles = Mass / Molar Mass

    3. Calculate:

    * Moles = 64 g / 32 g/mol = 2 moles

    Therefore, there are 2 moles of oxygen (O2) in exactly 64 grams.
