Question

How many carbon atoms are found in 10.0g of c2h6? Please explain.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Molar mass of C2H6= 2×12+6=30

30 g of C2H6 gives 1 mol of C2H6

10.0 g of C2H6 gives 1/30 ×10= 1/3 mol of C2H6

1 mol of C2H6 has 2 mol of Carbon

1/3 mol of C2H6 has 1/3 ×2 = 2/3 Molly of Carbon.

No. of atoms = 2/3× 6.023×10^23

=4.01×10^23
