Answer:

0.252 milimoles

Explanation:

To convert mass of a substance to moles it is necessary to use the molar mass of the substance.

The formula of morphine is C₁₇H₁₉NO₃, thus, its molar mass is:

C: 17*12.01g/mol = 204.17g/mol

H: 19*1.01g/mol = 19.19g/mol

N: 1*14g/mol = 14g/mol

O: 3*16g/mol = 48g/mol.

204.17 + 19.19 + 14 + 16 = <em>285.36g/mol</em>

Thus, moles of 71.891 mg = 0.071891g:

0.071891g × (1mol / 285.36g) = 2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles

As 1 mole = 1000 milimoles:

2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles = <em>0.252 milimoles</em>
