  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

1.25 × 10¹² molecules H₂SO₄

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:
    \displaystyle 1.25 \cdot 10^(12) \ molecules \ H_2SO_4((1 \ mol \ H_2SO_4)/(6.022 \cdot 10^(23) \ molecules \ H_2SO_4))
  2. Multiply/Divide:
    \displaystyle 2.07572 \cdot 10^(-12) \ moles \ H_2SO_4

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

2.07572 × 10⁻¹² mol H₂SO₄ ≈ 2.08 × 10⁻¹² mol H₂SO₄
