How many moles of carbon dioxide (CO2) does 250 grams of the substance have? How many molecules of CO2 are there? The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol.

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon dioxide  = 250g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide  = 44.01g/mol

Unknown:

Number of moles of carbon dioxide  = ?

Number of molecules of carbon dioxide  = ?

Solution:

We first find the number of moles of carbon dioxide;

 Number of moles  =  

  Number of moles  =   = 5.68moles

 From mole concept;

          1  mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

      5.68 mole of carbon dioxide will contain 5.68 x  6.02 x 10²³

                                                                = 3.42 x 10²⁴molecules
