Answer
2.0 x 10²³ molecules.
Explanation
Given:
The number of moles of theobromide measured out = 0.333 moles.
MM of theobromide = 180.8 g/mol
What to find:
The number of molecules of theobromide the student measured.
To go from moles to molecules, multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number.
The Avogadro's number = 6.02 x 10²³
1 mole of theobromide contains 6.02 x 10²³ molecules.
So, 0.333 moles of theobromide measured out will have (0.333 x 6.02 x 10²³) = 2.0 x 10²³ molecules.
