Question 20 a raindrop has a mass of 50.mg and the pacific ocean has a mass of ×7.081020kg . use this information to answer the questions below. be sure your answers have the correct number of significant digits.

Answered by maham237 @



The questions you can answer are

1) what is the mass of one mole of raindrops?, and

2) How many moles of raindrops are in the pacific ocean


Solutions:

1) what is the mass of one mole of raindrops?


mass = number of rain drops * mass of on rain drop

The number of rain drops in one mole of rain drops is 6.02 * 10^23

So, the mass of one mole of rain drops is

6.02 * 10 ^ 23 rain drops * 50. mg * (1 kg / 1,000,000 mg) = 3.01 * 10^ 19 kg

The correct number of significant digits is 2, because 50. mg has two signficant digits, so the answer must be shown as 3.0 * 10^ 19 kg.

2) How many moles of raindrops are in the pacific ocean


Use the proportion 1 mol / 3.0 * 10^19 kg = x mol / 7.08 * 10^20 kg

And you solve for x:

x = (7.08 * 10^20 kg) * 1 mol / (3.0 * 10^19 kg) = 2.36 * 10 = 23.6 moles

Which rounded to two significant digits is 24 moles of rain drops.
