What is the mass of 8.12 × 10^23 molecules of CO2 gas? (Atomic mass of carbon = 12.011 u; oxygen = 15.999 u.)

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the first step is to compute the molar mass of carbon dioxide as shown below, considering it has one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms:

It is important to notice it is the mass in one mole of such compound. Afterwards, we need to use the Avogadro's number to compute the how many moles are in the given molecules of carbon dioxide as shown below:

Finally, the mass by using the molar mass:

Best regards.

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.
