Answer:

1.30 moles

Step-by-step explanation:

As written, the molar mass of the fat is 770.5 g/mole. Add all the C, H, and O's (I get C48H98O6) and multiply by the molar mass of each. I obtain the 770.5 grams/mole figure, but would note that a more common fat is actually C3H5(OH(CH2)14(CH3))3 and not C3H5(OO(CH2)14(CH3))3.

Assuming C3H5(OO(CH2)14(CH3))3 is the correct structure, 1000g would mean 1000g/(770.5 g/mole) = 1.298 moles, or 1.30 moles to 2 sig figs.
