QUESTION:
a. Cyclopropane, C3H6, is an anesthetic given by inhalation. How many grams are in 0.25 mole of cyclopropane?b. The sedative Demerol hydrochloride has the formula C15H22ClNO2. How many grams are in 0.025 mole of Demerol hydrochloride?
ANSWER:Solution 38QPStep 1 of 2:a. Here, we are asked to calculate the mass (in grams) in 0.25 mole of cyclopropane (C3H6). Given:Number of moles of C3H6 = 0.25 molesMass of C3H6 =Molar mass of C3H6 = 42.08 g/molSo, 1 mole of C3H6 = 42.08 gSo, the mole-mass factor will be: and We know the formula to calculate the number of moles:Number of moles = This can be rewritten as:mass of the compound = number of moles molar mass of the compound = 0.25 moles of C3H6 = 10.52 g 11 gramsHence, the mass of C3H6 in 0.25 moles of C3H6 is 11 grams.________________
