Answer: The mass of copper sulfate is 1165 grams.
Explanation:
We are given:
Number of gram-moles of copper sulfate = 7.300 g-mol
We know that:
1 g-mol = 1 mol
So, number of moles of copper sulfate = 7.300 mol
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex]
Molar mass of copper sulfate = 159.6 g/mol
Moles of copper sulfate = 7.300 moles
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]7.300mol=\frac{\text{Mass of copper sulfate}}{159.6g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of copper sulfate}=1165g[/tex]
Hence, the mass of copper sulfate is 1165 grams.
