Answer :
Final answer:
To find the mass of sulfuric acid in grams from its moles, we multiply the number of moles (6.00 mol) by the molar mass of sulfuric acid (98.12 g/mol) to get 588.72 g, with the closest answer being 588 g. The correct option is b.
Explanation:
To calculate the number of grams of sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) in 6.00 mol, we need to use the molar mass of sulfuric acid. The molar mass of H₂SO₄ is calculated as follows:
Molar mass = (2 × 1.01) + 32.1 + (4 × 16) = 98.12 g/mol.
Now, we multiply the number of moles by the molar mass to find the mass in grams: Mass of H₂SO₄ = number of moles × molar mass = 6.00 mol × 98.12 g/mol.
Mass of H₂SO₄ = 588.72 g.
Therefore, the number of grams of sulfuric acid in 6.00 mol is 588.72 g. The closest answer choice is b. 588 g. The correct option is b.
