POSSIBLE POINTS 10
Observe the data below. Look for patterns and trends between the planets. After analyzing the data make a
general comparison of those planets closer to the sun with those farther from the sun, based on the data below.
Be sure to mention at least 2 comparisons between the closer planets and the further planets.

Explanation:

1. 1 mole of anything contains 6.022x10^23 pieces  

d  

2. a  

3. c, number  

5. 1.24x10^24atoms / 6.022x10^23atoms/mole = 2moles h2 atoms  

6. fe2br3 mass = 2moles x mass fe + 3 moles x mass br  

molar mass = grams / number of moles = g/mole  

to find moles = g / molar mass  

to find mass = g = molar mass / moles
