Molar mass BeI2 = 262.821 g/mol
Therefore:
1 mole BeI2 ----------- 262.821 g
0.02 moles ----------- ??
0.02 x 262.821 / 1 => 5.25642 g
Mass or the weight of the substance can be given as the product of the moles and molar mass of the substance. 5.25642 g is the mass of 0.02 moles of beryllium iodide.
Mass is the weight of the compound present in the given substance and can be given by the formula,
\(\rm mass = \rm molar\; mass \times moles\)
Given,
Moles of beryllium iodide (n) = 0.02 moles
Molar mass of beryllium iodide (M) = 262.821 g/mol
Mass of beryllium iodide = m
Solving for mass (m):
\(\begin{aligned} \rm m &= \rm M \times n\\\\\rm m &= 262.821 \;\rm g/mol \times 0.02\\\\&= 5.25642 \;\rm g\end{aligned}\)
Therefore, 5.25642 g is the mass of the beryllium iodide.
