Answer

The mass of 9.5 moles of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) is 970 grams.

Step-by-step solution

3 steps

Here's how to calculate it:

  1. Determine the molar mass of Al2O3

    • Atomic mass of Aluminum (Al) = 26.98 g/mol
    • Atomic mass of Oxygen (O) = 16.00 g/mol
    • Molar mass of Al2O3 = (2 * 26.98 g/mol) + (3 * 16.00 g/mol)
    • Molar mass of Al2O3 = 53.96 g/mol + 48.00 g/mol
    • Molar mass of Al2O3 = 101.96 g/mol
  2. Calculate the total mass

    • Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass
    • Mass = 9.5 moles * 101.96 g/mol
    • Mass = 968.62 g
  3. Round to appropriate significant figures

    • Since 9.5 moles has two significant figures, the final answer should also be rounded to two significant figures.
    • Mass = 970 g
