Show a correct numerical setup for calculating the
number of moles of CO2 (gram-formula mass =
44 g/mol) present in 11 grams of CO2.

0.25 moles of CO2 is present in 11 grams of CO2.

Explanation:

A mole represents the number of chemical entities in an element or molecule.

Number of moles of an element or molecule is determined by the formula:

The Number of moles (n) = weight of the atom given  ÷ atomic or molecular weight of the one mole of the element or molecule.

Themolar mass of one mole of carbon dioxide is:

12+ ( 16×2)

= 44 gram/mole

The given weight is 44 grams of carbon dioxide.

Putting the values in the equation,

n= 11 gms÷44 gms/ mole

n   = 0.25 mole

ca has a crystalline lattice with positive ions (since it is a metal, metals are positively charged) and electrons flow freely in its structure since the ca atoms have a large nuclear radius so the electrons are not tightly held, therefore the electrons can flow freely since they are not being highly attracted by the nucleus. moreover, one of the properties of metals are that they are conductors of electricity, thus proving ca is the element.
