Calculate the number of moles equivalent to 12.7 gram of iodine molecule

☃️ Chemical formulae ➝

How to find?

For solving this question, We need to know how to find moles of solution or any substance if a certain weight is given.

Solution:

❍ Molecular weight of

= 2 × 126.90

= 253.80

= 254 (approx.)

❍ Given weight: 12.7

Then, no. of moles,

⇛ No. of moles = 12.7 / 254

⇛ No. of moles = 0.05 moles

⚘ No. of moles of Iodine molecule in the given weight = 0.05 moles

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Explanation:

To find the number of moles (n) we use the formula

Where

n is the number of moles

m is the mass of the substance

M is the molar mass

To find the number of moles we must first find the molar mass

Since iodine is a diatomic molecule

M( I ) = 127 × 2 = 254 g/mol

Mass of iodine = 12.7 g

So the number of moles in 12.7 g of iodine is

We have the final answer as

chemical energy is stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules. it can only be seen when it is released in a chemical reaction. when chemical energy is released, the substance from which the energy came is often changed into an entirely different substance.

this chemical reaction releases energy in the form of light and heat. chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the arrangement of atoms within molecules. breaking chemical bonds requires energy, while forming new chemical bonds releases energy.

the atp molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. in this form,energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.
