Answer: There are 20.0 moles of hydrogen atom in 5.0 moles of methane.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Moles of methane = 5.0 mol

The chemical formula for methane is
CH_4

By Stoichiometry:

in 1 mole of methane there are 4 moles of hydrogen atom.

So, moles of hydrogen atom in 5.0 mol of methane will be :


5.0* 4 mol=20.0mol

Hence, there are 20.0 moles of hydrogen atom in 5.0 moles of methane.
