Answer:

0.2 moles, assuming weight of dried salt

Explanation:

In order to determine the number of moles, we need to be aware of the mass of the substance in question.

Assuming the mass of the dehydrated [tex]KAl(SO_{4} )_{2}.H_{2} O[/tex] is 50g.

No. of moles = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance.

= [tex]\frac{50g}{39+27+32*2+16*4*2\\)g/mol}[/tex]

= 0.2 moles moles.
