  • Convert Molecules of N₂I₆ to Grams: A Step-by-Step Calculation
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Calculate the molar mass of N₂I₆

    * Nitrogen (N) has an atomic mass of 14.01 g/mol.

    * Iodine (I) has an atomic mass of 126.90 g/mol.

    * Molar mass of N₂I₆ = (2 * 14.01 g/mol) + (6 * 126.90 g/mol) = 818.42 g/mol

    2. Convert molecules to moles

    * Avogadro's number is 6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mol

    * Moles of N₂I₆ = (8.281023 molecules) / (6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mol) = 1.375 x 10⁻² mol

    3. Calculate grams

    * Grams of N₂I₆ = (1.375 x 10⁻² mol) * (818.42 g/mol) = 11.26 g

    Therefore, there are approximately 11.26 grams in 8.281023 molecules of N₂I₆.
