A student weighs out 51.57 grams of sodium permanganate. The moles of sodium permanganate is 0.363 mol.
Molar mass of many compounds can be calculated by dividing the mass of the compound by the number of moles of the compound.
The molar mass is given 141.93 g/mol.
To calculate the moles
[tex]\rm Number\;of \;moles= \dfrac{mass}{molar\;mass}\\\rm Number\;of \;moles= \dfrac{51.57}{141.93} = 0.363\;mol[/tex]
Thus, the moles are 0.363 mol.
