be sure your answers have the correct number of significant digits.

what is the mass of 1 mole of bricks?

how many moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the earth? write answer as a decimal to one decimal place.

Verified Answer :

Mass of 1 mole of brick is \(\rm 2.4\;\times\;10^2^4\) kg. 2500 moles of brick will weigh the same as the mass of the earth.

(a) Mass of 1 mole of bricks:

Mass of 1 mole = weight \(\times\) Avagadro number

Mass of 1 mole brick = 4.0 \(\times\;6.023\;\times\;10^2^3\)

Mass of 1 mole of brick is \(\rm 2.4\;\times\;10^2^4\) kg.

(b) Number of moles of bricks having mass equal to earth:

= \(\rm \dfrac{mass\;of\;earth}{mass\;of\;1\;mole\;of\;brick}\)

= \(\rm \dfrac{6.0\;\times\;10^2^7}{2.4\;\times\;10^2^4}\)

= 2.5 \(\rm \times\;10^3\) moles

= 2500 moles of brick will weigh the same as the mass of the earth.

To have the mass equal to that of earth, the required number of moles of bricks are \(2.5 \times 10^{3} \;\rm moles\).

Given data:

The mass of brick is, m = 4.0 kg.

The mass of Earth is, \(M=6.0 \times 10^{27} \;\rm kg\).

Number of moles of brick is, n = 1.

(a)

The mass of 1 mole of bricks is,

\(m'= \rm m \rm \times Avogadro \;Number\\m'= 4.0 \rm \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}\\m' =2.4 \times 10^{24} \;\rm kg\)

Thus, the mass of 1 mole of bricks is  \(2.4 \times 10^{24} \;\rm kg\).

(b)

The number of moles (N) of brick to have mass equal to the mass of the earth is expressed as,

\(N=\dfrac{M}{m'} \\\\N=\dfrac{6.0 \times 10^{27}}{2.4 \times 10^{24}} \\\\N=2.5 \times 10^{3} \;\rm moles\)

Thus, for having the mass equal to the mass of the earth, the brick should have \(2.5 \times 10^{3}\) number of moles.
