How many grams of C are in 4.20x10 to the power of 23 molecules of (C3H5)2S?
I am not sure what the formula is that I am supposed to use to figure this out.

How many grams of C are in 4.20x10 to the power of 23 molecules of (C3H5)2S?
I am not sure what the formula is that I am supposed to use to figure this out.
Avogadro's number =
One mole of any material contains Avogadro's number of molecules.
Let's show you with an example. The atomic weight of oxygen is approximately 16. The molecular formula for oxygen is. Since there are two atoms of oxygen in a molecule, the molecular weight of
is 32. Therefore, in 32 grams of oxygen, there are
molecules of oxygen.
You havemolecules of
.
1. Calculate the number of moles of that substance.
2. Calculate the molecular weight of that substance
3. Multiply moles by molecular weight (grams per mole)
