Question 12

Calculate the gram molecules in 21 g of nitrogen [N = 14]

Answer

Gram molecules is the relative molecular mass of a substance expressed in grams.

Relative molecular mass of N2 = 2 x 14 = 28 g

Gram molecules=Mass in grams [of nitrogen]Rel. molecular mass [Mol. wt.]=2128=0.75 gram molecules\text{Gram molecules} = \dfrac{\text{Mass in grams [of nitrogen]}}{\text{Rel. molecular mass [Mol. wt.]}} \\[0.5em] = \dfrac{21}{28} \\[0.5em] = 0.75 \text { gram molecules}

Hence, gram molecules in 21 g of nitrogen = 0.75 gram molecules
