Question

How many molecules are there in 5.9 moles of NaCl?

Answer 1

The number of molecules= 3.55 x 10²⁴

Further explanation

Given

5.9 moles of NaCl

Required

The number of molecules

Solution

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

So for 5.9 moles :

= 5.9 x 6.02 x 10²³

= 3.55 x 10²⁴
