Question

How many moles are in the below molecules of CO 1.204x1024

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of moles present in 1.204 × 10²⁴ molecules of CO is approximately 2 moles of CO

Explanation:

The number of molecules in one mole of a substance is given by the Avogadro's number, $N_A$ which gives the number elementary units contained in a mole of a substance

$N_A$ = 6.0221409 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

The given parameter for the carbon monoxide (CO) is as follows;

The number of molecules of CO present, N = 1.204 × 10²⁴

$The \ number \ of \ moles \ of \ CO \ present = \dfrac{ The \ number \ of \ molecules \ of \ CO \ present }{Avogadro's \ Number}$Therefore, we have;

$The \ number \ of \ moles \ of \ CO \ present = \dfrac{ 1.204 \times 10^{24} }{6.0221409 \times 10^{23}} = 1.9992889904$

The number of moles of CO present = 1.9992889904 moles ≈ 2 moles

The number of moles of CO in 1.204 × 10²⁴ molecules of CO ≈ 2 moles
