Question

How many molecules are in 2.50 moles of carbon dioxide?

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5055×10²⁴ molecules

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of mole CO₂ = 2.5 moles

Number of molecules CO₂ =?

The number of molecules present in 2.5 moles CO₂ can be obtained as:

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

1 mole of CO₂ = 6.022×10²³ molecules

Therefore,

2.5 mole of CO₂ = 2.5 × 6.022×10²³

2.5 mole of CO₂ = 1.5055×10²⁴ molecules

Thus, 1.5055×10²⁴ molecules are present in 2.5 moles CO₂
