Answer:

the number of moles of ethanol is 18 g sample is 0.390 mol

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of moles of ethanol is 18 g sample is shown below:

= Mass of ethanol sample ÷ molar mass of ethanol

= 18 g ÷ 46.064=84 g

= 0.390 mol

Hence, the number of moles of ethanol is 18 g sample is 0.390 mol
