Calculate the number of moles of each of the following:

Calculate the mass of each of the following:

0.0200 moles of a compound is found to have a mass of 1.64g.

Find the formula mass of the compound.

1. Moles of aluminium oxide = mass ÷ molar mass

5
2. 2Al2O3:4Al Use the balanced equation to find the moles of aluminium

3. Mass of aluminium = moles x molar mass

1. Moles of calcium oxide = mass ÷ molar mass
2. Moles of water = mass ÷ molar mass
3. Which reactant is the limiting reactant?
4. How many moles of calcium hydroxide will form?
5. Mass of calcium hydroxide = moles x molar mass

Note: this is bonus info – not in your GCSE specification 7

Work out the molar ratios of these reactants:

1. Moles of nitrogen = mass ÷ molar mass

8
2. Moles of hydrogen = mass ÷ molar mass

3. Simplify ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen
