Expert Solution
Step 1 To Calculate

Here we are asked to calculate the mass of 3.7×1019 particlesof iron(III) carbonate.

Step 2 Concept and Calculation

The mass of given number of particles of iron(iii) carbonate is as follows,Molar mass of iron(iii) carbonate( Fe2(CO3)3) =291.72 gmol   i.e.mass of one mole of Fe2(CO3)3 =291.72 gram and one mole of Fe2(CO3)3 = 6.023×1023 particles of Fe2(CO3)3again, since 6.023×1023 particles of Fe2(CO3)3=291.72 gramso, 1 particles of Fe2(CO3)3 =291.72  6.023×1023  gramthus, 3.7×1019 particles of Fe2(CO3)3 =291.72 × 3.7×1019  6.023×1023  gram                                                                      = 179.21×1019-23 gram                                                                      =  179.21×10-4 gram                                                                      = 1.79×10-2 gram
