Capitolo 3, Problema 89d

Determine the number of moles of hydrogen atoms in each sample. d. 1.87 mol C8H18

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the chemical formula of the compound, which is \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} \).
Determine the number of hydrogen atoms in one molecule of \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} \). There are 18 hydrogen atoms per molecule.
Use the given amount of moles of \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} \), which is 1.87 mol.
Calculate the total number of moles of hydrogen atoms by multiplying the moles of \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} \) by the number of hydrogen atoms per molecule: \( 1.87 \text{ mol} \times 18 \text{ H atoms/molecule} \).
The result will give you the total moles of hydrogen atoms in the sample.
