  • Calculating the Number of Molecules: Nitrogen Trifluoride (NF₃)
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Avogadro's Number

    Avogadro's number tells us that there are 6.022 x 10²³ particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in one mole of any substance.

    2. Calculation

    * Start with the number of moles: 4.91 moles of nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃)

    * Multiply by Avogadro's number: 4.91 moles * (6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mole)

    * Calculate: 2.96 x 10²⁴ molecules of NF₃

    Answer: There are approximately 2.96 x 10²⁴ molecules of nitrogen trifluoride in 4.91 moles.
