E)     Easy bit – moles at the start

Calculation:

1.    Use the densities from Activity 17 sheet to calculate the masses of the molecules at the start – fill in the table above.

 

                       Mass  =  Density  x  Volume

 

2.    Use the Mr’s of the molecules to calculate the moles at the start – fill in the table above.
