How many moles are in 83.1g of CaBr2

0.416 mol CaBr₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

83.1 g CaBr₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of Ca - 40.08 g/mol

Molar mass of Br - 79.90 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaBr₂ - 40.08 + 2(79.90) = 199.88 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

= 0.415749 mol CaBr₂

Step 4: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.

0.415749 mol CaBr₂ ≈ 0.416 mol CaBr₂

a polar bond is formed when electrons are shared unevenly between atoms

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
