How many molecules are in .275 grams of SO3?
  1. 3.22x1020
  2. 4.50x1021
  3. 2.07x1021
  4. 1.12x1020
  5. 4.56x1022
Explanation
Answer: 2.07x1021

Begin this problem by converting grams of SO3 to moles of SO3 using the molar mass of SO3. Once you have obtained this value, use Avogadro’s number to convert moles of SO3 to molecules of SO3. The final expression is (.275 grams SO3) x (1 mol / 80.057 grams) x (6.022x1023 molecules / 1 mol), indicating that the correct answer is 2.07x1021.
