To Find :

Number of moles of C₃H₆O present in a sample weighing 25.6 grams.

Solution :

Molecular mass of C₃H₆O is :

M = (6×12) + (6×1) + (16×1) grams

M = 94 grams/mol

We know, number of moles of 25.6 grams of C₃H₆O is :


n = (Given \ Mass \ Of \ C_3H_6O )/(Molar\ Mass \ Of \ C_3H_6O )\\\\n = (25.6)/(94)\ mole\\\\n = 0.27 \ mole

Hence, this is the required solution.
