If you had 3 moles of carbon dioxide (CO>2), how many atoms of oxygen would you have?

Question

a science question of atoms. i cant figure it out, and i need help. please answer it with steps so i can see how you did it. thank you =]]

Answer 1

1 mole=6.023x10^23. if you have 3 moles of CO2, and there are 2 atoms of oxygen in each molecule of CO2, the there are 6 moles of oxtgen atoms, or 3.61x10^24 oxygen atoms!

Answer 2

if you have 3 moles of co2 then you have 6 moles of oxygen atoms

since 1 mole is 6.02E23

6.02E23 x 6= 3.6E24 atoms of Oxygen

Answer 3

Avogadro's number, NA, is the number of objects in a mole.

So 1 mole CO2 contains NA molecules CO2.

3 moles CO2 contains 3 x NA molecules CO2.

The formula tells you that every molecule CO2 contains just 2 atoms O.

Now you can do it. So you weren't clueless, just confused.
