How many molecules of co2 in 97.3 grams of co2

1.33 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Stoichiometry

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

97.3 g CO₂

Step 2: Define conversions

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of CO₂ - 12.01 + 2(16.00) = 44.01 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

= 1.33138 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

Step 4: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.

1.33138 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂ ≈ 1.33 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

the answer to this question is 3.
