  • Calculating Moles of Bromine: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the number of moles of bromine gas (Br₂) in 37.7 grams:

    1. Find the molar mass of bromine gas (Br₂):

    * The atomic mass of bromine (Br) is approximately 79.90 g/mol.

    * Since bromine gas is diatomic (Br₂), the molar mass of bromine gas is 2 * 79.90 g/mol = 159.80 g/mol.

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

    * moles = 37.7 g / 159.80 g/mol

    * moles ≈ 0.236 mol

    Therefore, there are approximately 0.236 moles of bromine gas in 37.7 grams.
