Lesson: Chapter 7 — Quantification of Elements and Compounds

Working with moles 5 of 10

Question 5

What is the mass of 2 moles of urea (CO(NH2)2)? (Molar mass = 60 g mol-1)

The right answer is the one marked above.

120 g. The formula is reversed here: m = n × M = 2 mol × 60 g mol-1 = 120 g.

30 g comes from dividing instead of multiplying. Moles were given and a mass asked for, so this is a multiplication.

Answer the question to continue.
