The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine how many moles and molecules of carbon dioxide (CO₂) are represented by 440 grams. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the Molar Mass of Carbon Dioxide (CO₂)**: - The molar mass of carbon (C) is approximately 12 g/mol. - The molar mass of oxygen (O) is approximately 16 g/mol. - Since CO₂ has one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, the molar mass can be calculated as: \[ \text{Molar mass of CO₂} = 12 + (2 \times 16) = 12 + 32 = 44 \text{ g/mol} \] 2. **Calculate the Number of Moles of CO₂ in 440 grams**: - Using the formula: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{\text{Mass (g)}}{\text{Molar mass (g/mol)}} \] - Substituting the values: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{440 \text{ g}}{44 \text{ g/mol}} = 10 \text{ moles} \] 3. **Calculate the Number of Molecules of CO₂**: - Using Avogadro's number, which is \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\) molecules/mol, we can find the total number of molecules: \[ \text{Number of molecules} = \text{Number of moles} \times \text{Avogadro's number} \] - Substituting the values: \[ \text{Number of molecules} = 10 \text{ moles} \times 6.023 \times 10^{23} \text{ molecules/mol} = 6.023 \times 10^{24} \text{ molecules} \] 4. **Evaluate the Options**: - (i) 5 g moles of CO₂: **Incorrect** (we found 10 moles) - (ii) 10 moles of CO₂: **Correct** - (iii) \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\) molecules of CO₂: **Incorrect** (this is the number of molecules in 1 mole) - (iv) \(6.023 \times 10^{24}\) molecules of CO₂: **Correct** (this is the number of molecules in 10 moles) ### Conclusion: The correct representations of 440 grams of carbon dioxide are: - (ii) 10 moles of carbon dioxide - (iv) \(6.023 \times 10^{24}\) molecules of carbon dioxide
