Chapter 7: Problem 20

How many molecules in 2.00 \(\mathrm{mol}\) of sucrose, \(\mathrm{C}_{12} \mathrm{H}_{22} \mathrm{O}_{11} ?\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The number of molecules in 2.00 mol of sucrose is \(1.204 \times 10^{24}\) molecules.

Step by step solution

01

Understand the Exercise

Identify the key information given in the exercise. Here, the key detail is the number of moles of the substance, which is sucrose and is 2.00 moles.
02

Remember Avogadro's Number

Recall that Avogadro's number tells us that 1 mole of any substance contains \(6.022 \times 10^{23}\) units (here, molecules).
03

Apply Avogadro's Number

To find the number of molecules in a substance given in moles, multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number. Here, multiply 2.00 moles by \(6.022 \times 10^{23} molecules/mol\).
