Respuesta :

Moles=mass/Mr 
mass=454
Mr=12+16+16=44
So,454/44=10.31mol
Answer is:10.31mol

Explanation:

Number of moles is defined as mass divided by molar mass.

Mathematically,      No. of moles = [tex]\frac{mass given}{molar mass}[/tex]

Since, it is given that mass present is 454 g and molar mass of [tex]CO_{2}[/tex] is 44.01 g/mol.

Therefore, calculate number of moles as follows.

                No. of moles = [tex]\frac{mass given}{molar mass}[/tex]

                                       = [tex]\frac{454 g}{44.01 g/mol}[/tex]

                                       = 10.31 mol

Thus, we can conclude that number of moles present in 454 grams of [tex]CO_{2}[/tex] is 10.31 mol.
