Answer:

1.93 x 10²⁴molecules

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of CO₂ = 3.2 moles

To find the number of molecules of CO₂ in 3.2 moles, we simply use the expression below :

Number of particles = number of moles x 6.02 x 10²³

The above equation relates the number of particles such as molecules, atoms, protons, electrons to the number of moles.

A mole can be defined as the amount of substance contained in the avogadro's number of particles(6.02 x 10²³)

Number of particles = 3.2 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 19.264 x 10²³ =

1.93 x 10²⁴molecules
