1. Determine the Molar Mass
* Copper(II) nitrate formula: Cu(NO₃)₂
* Molar mass of Cu: 63.55 g/mol
* Molar mass of N: 14.01 g/mol
* Molar mass of O: 16.00 g/mol
Calculate the molar mass of Cu(NO₃)₂:
* (1 x 63.55 g/mol) + (2 x 14.01 g/mol) + (6 x 16.00 g/mol) = 187.57 g/mol
2. Convert Moles to Grams
* Use the formula: mass = moles x molar mass
* Plug in the values: mass = 6.36 mol x 187.57 g/mol
* Calculate: mass = 1194.07 g
Therefore, the mass of 6.36 mol of copper(II) nitrate is approximately 1194.07 grams.
