A coordination complex contains 2.6 %2.6\ \% of Mg. Find the number of Mg atoms in 5.05.0 g of this sample.
(gram atomic mass of Mg =24= 24 g )

Options

  1. A1.5×10211.5 \times 10^{21}
  2. B3.26×10213.26 \times 10^{21}
  3. C2.82×10212.82 \times 10^{21}
  4. D4.3×10214.3 \times 10^{21}

Correct answer

B. 3.26×10213.26 \times 10^{21}

Step-by-step solution

Mass of the sample =5.0= 5.0 g

Percentage of Mg in the complex =2.6 %= 2.6\ \%

Mass of Mg in the sample =2.6100×5.0=0.13= \dfrac{2.6}{100} \times 5.0 = 0.13 g

Number of moles of Mg =0.1324= \dfrac{0.13}{24} mol

Number of Mg atoms =0.1324×6.022×1023= \dfrac{0.13}{24} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}

Number of Mg atoms =3.26×1021= 3.26 \times 10^{21}

Answer: 3.26×10213.26 \times 10^{21}
