Accepted Answer

The mass, in grams, of 5.90 mol [tex]C_6H_{12[/tex] would be 495.6 grams.Number of moles of substanceThe number of moles in a given amount of substance is the ratio of the mass of the substance and its molar mass.The statement of the number of moles of substances can be mathematically expressed as follows:Mole = mass/molar massMaking molar mass the subject, the equation becomes:Molar mass = mass/moleMaking mass the subject, the equation becomes:Mass = mole x molar mass.In this case, we are looking for the mass of a given mole of  [tex]C_6H_{12[/tex].C = 12 g/molH = 1 g/molMolar mass of [tex]C_6H_{12[/tex] = (6x12) + (12x1)                                    = 72 + 12                                    = 84 g/molHence:Mass of 5.90 mol  [tex]C_6H_{12[/tex] = 5.90 x 84                                          = 495.6 gramsIn other words, 5.90 mol of [tex]C_6H_{12[/tex] would be equivalent to 495.6 grams of the compound.More on number of moles can be found here: https://brainly.com/question/14919968#SPJ1
