Answer:
A. 2 Fe, 3 S and 12 O
B. 43 moles of H
C. 1.0×10² moles of C
Explanation:
A. Formula for iron (III) sulfate is Fe₂(SO₄)₃
This salt has 2 atoms of iron and 3 sulfates, so in total we have:
2 Fe, 3 S and 12 O
Pay attention to the subscripts
B. Formula for quinine is: C₂₀H₂₄N₂O₂
If we continue with the example before we can say that 1 mol of Iron (III) sulfate contains 2 moles of Fe, 3 moles of S and 12 moles of O
Then, 1 mol of quinine contains 24 moles of H
So 1.8 moles of quinine, may contain (1.8 . 24) /1 = 43 moles of H
C. 1 mol of quinine contains 20 moles of C
5.4 moles of quinine may contain (5.4 . 20) /1 = 1.0×10²
<u>(As the answer must be in 2 significant figures and the real answer is 108, I had to use scientific notation)</u>
