Which of the following is the correct set up AND answer to convert 6.25 x 1032 atoms of Copper to grams of Copper?

Explanation:

How many mols do you have?

1 mol = 6.02 * 10^23 atoms

x mol = 6.25 * 10 ^32 atoms

1/x = 6.02*10^23 / 6.25 * 10^32        Cross multiply

6.02 * 10^23 * x = 1 * 6.25 * 10^32    Divide by 6.02 * 10^23

x = 6.25 * 10*32/ 6.02 ^10^23

x = 1.038 * 10^9 mols which is quite large.

Find the number of grams. (Use the value for copper on your periodic table. I will just use an approximate number.)\

1 mol of copper = 63 grams.

1.038 * 10^9 mols of copper = x

1/1.038 * 10^9 = 63/x         Cross multiply

x = 1.038 * 10^9 * 63

x = 6.54 * 10^10 grams of copper.
