We have under 4*kg4kg of "barium chromate"barium chromate............and under 2*g2g of Cl_2Cl2.

Explanation:

The molar mass of "barium chromate"barium chromate is 253.37*g*mol^-1253.37gmol1. And thus the mass of the given quantity is 14.8*cancel(mol)xx253.37*g*cancel(mol^-1)=3750*g.

For the Cl_2 molecule, we solve the quotient:

(1.23xx10^22*"chlorine molecules")/(6.022xx10^23*"chlorine molecules"*mol^-1)=0.0204*mol.

Since the chlorine molecule has a molar mass of 70.90*g*mol^-1, the mass of dichlorine is 70.90*g*mol^-1xx0.0204*mol=1.45*g
