Step 1: Define

3.24 × 10²² molecules CH₃(CH₂)₈(OH)₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

[PT] Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of CH₃(CH₂)₈(OH)₂ - 12.01 + 3(1.01) + 8[12.01 + 2(1.01)] + 2[16.00 + 1.01] = 161.3 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

Step 4: Check

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

8.67838 g CH₃(CH₂)₈(OH)₂ ≈ 8.68 g CH₃(CH₂)₈(OH)₂
