Answer:
53.11× 10²³ molecules
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of molecules of CO₂ = ?
Mass of CO₂ = 388.1 g
Solution:
Formula:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Molar mass of CO₂ = 12× 1 + 16×2
Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
Now we will put the values in formula.
Number of moles = 388.1 g/ 44 g/mol
Number of moles = 8.82 moles
Now we will calculate the number of molecules by using Avogadro number.
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
8.82 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / 1 mol
53.11× 10²³ molecules
