Relationship between moles and Avogadro's constant

Moles equation is moles= mass/RFM Avogadro's constant is 6.x 10 23 . 1 mole means 6x 10 23 atoms/molecules. e.g. 2 mole of Cu weighs 128g. What is the weight of 1 Cu atom? 2 moles is 2x 6x10 23 atoms = 1.2x1...

Calculate the mass of sodium amide needed to obtain 550 g of sodium azide, assuming there is a 95.0% yield of sodium azide. Give your answer to 3 significant figures.

2NaNH2 + N2O --> NaN3 + NaOH + NH3 Mr(NaN3) = 65 Mr(NaNH2) = 39 n(NaN3) = 550/65 = 8.46 100% NaN3 = 550/65 x 100/95 = 8.91 n(NaNH2) = 2 x 8.91 = 17.8 m(NaNH2) = 17.8 x Mr = 17.8 x 39 = 694.7 = 695 g
