1. **State the problem:** Find the number of moles in 98.3 g of Aluminum Hydroxide, Al(OH)$_3$.
2. **Formula used:** Number of moles $n = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}}$
3. **Calculate molar mass of Al(OH)$_3$:**
- Atomic mass of Al = 26.98 g/mol
- Atomic mass of O = 16.00 g/mol
- Atomic mass of H = 1.008 g/mol
Molar mass = $26.98 + 3 \times (16.00 + 1.008) = 26.98 + 3 \times 17.008 = 26.98 + 51.024 = 77.994$ g/mol
4. **Calculate moles:**
$$n = \frac{98.3}{77.994}$$
5. **Simplify fraction:**
$$n = \frac{\cancel{98.3}}{\cancel{77.994}} \approx 1.26$$
6. **Answer:** There are approximately **1.26 moles** of Aluminum Hydroxide in 98.3 g.
