Question

How many molecules are contained in 52.5 moles of C2H6?
please explain if you can

Answer 1

3.16x10²⁵ molecules

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mol refers to the amount of a substance. The amount of C₂H₆ molecules (or any other substance) that are in one mol is given by Avogadro's number:

• 1 mol contains 6.023x10²³ particles (be it atoms, molecules or ions).

With that in mind we can calculate how many molecules are there in 52.5 moles:

• 52.5 mol * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 3.16x10²⁵ molecules
