Question 15

H

A student has a sample of 5.6 g of iron and a sample of 4.4 g of carbon dioxide.

Relative atomic mass ( $A_r$ ): $Fe=56\text{Fe} = 56$

Relative formula mass ( $M_r$ ): $CO2=44\text{CO}_2 = 44$

The Avogadro constant is 6.02 × 10²³ per mole.

a.

Calculate the amount, in moles, of iron in the sample.

[2]

b.

Calculate the number of iron atoms in the sample.

Give your answer in standard form.

[2]

c.
