1. Atoms per molecule:
* Each CO2 molecule contains 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, for a total of 3 atoms.
2. Avogadro's Number:
* Avogadro's number tells us there are 6.022 x 10^23 molecules in one mole of any substance.
3. Calculation:
* Step 1: Multiply the moles of CO2 by Avogadro's number to find the number of CO2 molecules:
35 mol CO2 * (6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mol) = 2.1077 x 10^25 molecules of CO2
* Step 2: Multiply the number of CO2 molecules by the number of atoms per molecule:
(2.1077 x 10^25 molecules) * (3 atoms/molecule) = 6.3231 x 10^25 atoms
Answer: There are approximately 6.3231 x 10^25 atoms in 35 moles of carbon dioxide.
