a. 0.51 moles of Mg
b. 0.25 moles of F
Explanation:
a. To find the number of moles knowing the mass we use the following formula:
number of moles = mass / molecular weight
number of moles of Mg = 12.15 / 24 = 0.51 moles
b. To find the number of moles knowing the number of atoms we use Avogadro's number to illustrate the following reasoning:
if in 1 mole of F there are 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of F
then in X moles of F there are 1.5 × 10²³ atoms of F
X = (1 × 1.5 × 10²³) / 6.022 × 10²³
X = 0.25 moles of F
