How many carbon dioxide molecules are present in 0.5 mol of CO₂? (Avogadro constant = 6.02 × 10²³ per mol)
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 3.01 × 10²³
- Step 1: Number of particles = moles × Avogadro constant. Step 2. 0.5 × 6.02 × 10²³ = 3.01 × 10²³. Answer: 3.01 × 10²³. Why not the others: 0.083 × 10²³ is what you get if you divide by Avogadro's constant. 3.01 × 10²² is what you get if you misplace a power of ten. 3.01 × 10²⁴ is what you get if you misplace a power of ten.
