  • Calculating Moles: How Many Moles in 47g of Chlorine Gas?
    Here's how to calculate the number of moles in 47g of chlorine gas:

    1. Determine the molar mass of chlorine gas (Cl₂):

    * The atomic mass of chlorine (Cl) is approximately 35.45 g/mol.

    * Since chlorine gas exists as a diatomic molecule (Cl₂), its molar mass is 2 * 35.45 g/mol = 70.90 g/mol.

    2. Use the formula: moles = mass / molar mass

    * moles = 47 g / 70.90 g/mol

    * moles ≈ 0.66 mol

    Therefore, there are approximately 0.66 moles in 47g of chlorine gas.
