Hi Jessica, to calculate the grams of sodium sulfate in 0.1 mole, you would multiple the molar mass of Na2SO4 by 0.1 mole.
The molar mass of Na2SO4 can be calculated by using the atomic weight (found in the periodic table) of each element and add up the values together to obtain the molar mass of Na2SO4.
Keep in mind that since you have 2 Na and 4 oxygens, you will multiple the atomic weight of these elements by the amount. For example, since the atomic weight for 1 oxygen is 15.99 and you have 4 oxygens in sodium sulfate, you will multiple 15.99 by 4.
