Answer:
14.8 × 10²³ molecules
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Mass of sulfuric acid = 240 g
Number of molecules = ?
Solution:
The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.
The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
For example,
18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water
1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
Number of moles of sulfuric acid
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 240 g/ 98 g/mol
Number of moles = 2.45 mol
Number of molecules:
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
2.45 × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
14.8 × 10²³ molecules
