Question
Calculate the number of molecules in 12.8g of sulphur dioxide gas. Take Avogadro's number as 6 x 1023.
[S = 32, 0 = 16 ]
Solution
Number of molecules in 12.8g of sulphur dioxide gas.
Molecular mass of SO2 = 64a.m.u .
So, 64g = 1 mole
12.8g = 12.8/ 64 = 0.2 mole
Now 1 mole of SO2 contains = 6 x 1023molecules
0 .2 mole of SO2 contains = 0 .2 x 6 x 1023
= 1.2 x 1023molecules.
