Calculate the number of moles of magnesium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms in 8.20 moles of magnesium perchlorate, Mg(ClO4)2.
Chemical formula of Magnesium perchlorate is Mg(ClO4)2.
Molecular formula hence, MgCl2O8 .
Hence,
1) 1 mole of Mg(ClO4)2 = 1 mole of Mg atoms
So, 8.20 moles of Mg(ClO4)2 = 8.20 moles of Mg atoms.
==================================
2)1 mole of Mg(ClO4)2 = 2 moles of Cl atoms
So, 8.20 moles of Mg(ClO4)2 =2 x 8.20 = 16.40 moles of Cl atoms.
==================================
3)1 mole of Mg(ClO4)2 = 8 moles of O atoms.
So, 8.20 moles of Mg(ClO4)2 = 8 x 8.20 = 65.60 moles of O atoms.
