Answer:
1.71 × 10²¹ molecules
Explanation:
1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. The mass in grams corresponding to 500 mg is:
500 mg × (1 g / 1000 mg) = 0.500 g
The molar mass of ascorbic acid is 176.12 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 0.500 grams of ascorbic acid are:
0.500 g × (1 mol/ 176.12 g) = 0.00284 mol
In 1 mole of ascorbic acid, there are 6.02 × 10²³ molecules of ascorbic acid (Avogadro's number). The molecules in 0.00284 moles are:
0.00284 mol × (6.02 × 10²³ molecules/ 1 mol) = 1.71 × 10²¹ molecule
As you can see in the picture we have +ΔH so that means for this reaction we need to GET heat. so the answer is A. endothermic :))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
