Answer

0.31 mole Explanation 1. Calculate molar mass of NaCl M(\text{NaCl}) = M(\text{Na}) + M(\text{Cl}) = 22.99\,\text{g/mol} + 35.45\,\text{g/mol} = 58.44\,\text{g/mol} 2. Use mole formula \text{Moles} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \frac{18.0\,\text{g}}{58.44\,\text{g/mol}} \approx 0.308\,\text{mol}

Explanation

1. Calculate molar mass of NaCl<br /> $M(\text{NaCl}) = M(\text{Na}) + M(\text{Cl}) = 22.99\,\text{g/mol} + 35.45\,\text{g/mol} = 58.44\,\text{g/mol}$<br />2. Use mole formula<br /> $\text{Moles} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \frac{18.0\,\text{g}}{58.44\,\text{g/mol}} \approx 0.308\,\text{mol}$
