How many moles of Cr are in 156 g of the element?

A. 1.0 mol
B. 3.0 mol
C. 6.5 mol
D. 156 mol

Answer :

Mole measure the number of elementary entities of a given substance that are present in a given sample. 3 mole of Cr are in 156 g of the element. The correct option is option B.

What is mole?

The SI unit of amount of substance in chemistry is mole. The mole is used to measure the quantity or amount of substance. We know one mole of any element contains 6.022×10²³ atoms which is also called Avogadro number.

Mathematically, mole and molar mass of chromium can be related as :

number of mole =given mass of chromium÷ molar mass of chromium

Mass of chromium=156 g

Molar mass of 1 mole of chromium= 51.9961 g/mol

Substituting the given values we get,

number of mole =156 g ÷ 51.9961 g/mol

number of mole= 3

Therefore, the correct option is option B. 3 mole of Cr are in 156 g of the element.
