What's the mass in grams of 0.442 moles of calcium bromide, CaBr2? The atomic weight of Ca is 40.1 and the atomic weight of Br is 79.9.
A) 452.3 g
B) 53.04 g
C) 44.2 g
D) 88.4 g

Below

Explanation:

Let n be the quantity of matter in the Calcium Bromide

● n = m/ M

M is the atomic weight and m is the mass

M of CaBr2 is the sum of the atomic wieght of its components (2 Bromes atoms and 1 calcium atom)

M = 40.1 + 2×79.9

● 0.422 = m/ (40.1+2×79.9)

●0.422 = m/ 199.9

● m = 0.422 × 199.9

● m = 84.35 g wich is 88.4 g approximatively
