Identify the given quantity: 1.0 \(\times\) 10^{-6} \(\text{ mol of }\) \(\text{CH}\)_3\(\text{CH}\)_2\(\text{OH}\).
Recall Avogadro's number, which is approximately 6.022 \(\times\) 10^{23} \(\text{ molecules/mol}\).
Use the formula: \(\text{Number of molecules}\) = \(\text{moles}\) \(\times\) \(\text{Avogadro's number}\).
Substitute the given moles (1.0 \(\times\) 10^{-6} \(\text{ mol}\)) and Avogadro's number into the formula.
Perform the multiplication to find the number of molecules.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Mole Concept

The mole is a fundamental unit in chemistry that quantifies the amount of substance. One mole contains approximately 6.022 x 10²³ entities, such as atoms or molecules, known as Avogadro's number. This concept allows chemists to convert between the mass of a substance and the number of particles it contains, facilitating calculations in stoichiometry.
