Question

1. How many molecules are in 240g of sulfuric acid?

Answer 1

Answer:

14.8 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sulfuric acid = 240 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve 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.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

Number of moles of sulfuric acid

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles =  240 g/ 98 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.45 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

2.45 × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

14.8 × 10²³ molecules
