  The mass in grams  of nitric  acid that is required  to react  with 454g C7H8 is 932.72  grams

     calculation
find the  moles  of C7H8  used
moles = mass/molar mass

= 454 g/92  = 4.935  moles

balanced reacting  equation

C7H8  +3 HNO3  = C7H5N3O6  +3 H20
by  use of mole ratio between  C7H8  to  HNo3  which is  1:3  the moles of  HNO3  =4.935  x3 = 14.805  moles

mass of HNo3  =  moles  x molar mass
= 14.805  x 63  = 932.72  grams

part B

the  mass of  C7H5N3o6 = 2045.5 grams

calculate the moles of C7H8
= 829 g/92  g/mol  = 9.011  moles

by use of mole  ratio  between C7H8 to C7H5N3O6  which is  1:1  the moles of  C7H5N3O6  is also  = 9.011  moles

mass of  C7H5N3O6  is therefore  =  moles x molar mass

=9.011 x227  = 2045.5 grams

How many O atoms are in 4C₆H₁₂O₆
ipn [44]

Number of O atoms : 24

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

C₆H₁₂O₆ compound

Required

Number of atoms

Solution

A molecular formula  shows the number of atomic elements in compound.  

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of the atoms

Glucose-C₆H₁₂O₆ is composed of 3 elements, namely C, H, and O.

The number of atoms in a compound can usually be seen from the subscript number after the atom and the reaction coefficient shows the number of molecules

So number of O atoms :

= 4 x 6 = 24 atoms
