Which sample will have the greatest mass?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks which sample will have the greatest mass when each option is 1 mole.
Option 1: 1 mol of SO2. Its molar mass is about 64.07 g/mol, so the mass for 1 mole is 64.07 g.
Option 2: 1 mol of H2SO4. Its molar mass is about 98.08 g/mol, so the mass for 1 mole is 98.08 g, which is larger than the others listed.
Option 3: 1 mol of H2O. Its molar mass is about 18.02 g/mol, so the mass for 1 mole is 18.02 g.
Option 4: They all have the same mass. This would only be true if all compounds had the same molar mass, which they do not, so this statement is false.
Option 5: 1 mol of H2. Its molar mass is about 2.02 g/mol, so the mass for 1 mole is 2.02 g.
Option 6: 1 mol of O2. Its molar mass is about 32.00 g/mol, so the mass for 1 mole is 32.00 g.

To determine which has the greatest mass, compare the molar masses of each 1-mole sample. Since mass = number of moles × molar mass, and all samples are 1 mole, the sample with the largest molar mass will have the greatest mass. Among the options, H2SO4 has the largest molar mass (~98.08 g/mol), which makes 1 mol of H2SO4 the heaviest sample.

In short, Option 2 (1 mol of H2SO4) yields the greatest mass because sulfuric acid has a higher molar mass than SO2, H2O, H2, and O2, while the claim that all samples have the same mass is incorrect given the differing molar masses.
