Answer:

Explanation:

Not Many

1 mol of CO has a mass of

C = 12

O = 16

1 mol = 28 grams.

1 mol of molecules = 6.02 * 10^23

x mol of molecules = 3.14 * 10^15 Cross multiply

6.02*10^23 x = 1 * 3.14 * 10^15 Divide by 6.02*10^23

x = 3.14*10^15 / 6.02*10^23

x = 0.000000005 mols

x = 5*10^-9

1 mol of CO has a mass of 28

5*10^-9 mol of CO has a mass of x Cross Multiply

x = 5 * 10^-9 * 28

x = 1.46 * 10^-7 grams

Answer: there are 1.46 * 10-7 grams of CO if only 3.14 * 10^15 molecules are in the sample

Balance the combustion eqation; __C5H + __O2 ---> __CO2+__H2O

stira [4]

This equation C5H + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O has a mistake.

C5H is wrong. You missed the subscript of H.

I will do it for you assuming some subscript to show you the procedure, but you have to use the right equation to get the right balanced equation.

Assuming the tha combustion equation is C5H12 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

First you need to balance C, so you put a 5 before CO2 and get

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + H2O

Now you count the hydrogens: 12 on the left and 2 on the right. So put a 6 before H2O and get:

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now count the oxygens: 2 on the left and 16 on the right, so put an 8 on before O2:

=> C5H12 + 8O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O.

You can verify that the equation is balanced
