  • Calculating Total Atoms in Carbon Tetrachloride (CCl4)
    Here's how to calculate the total number of atoms in 3.79 mol of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4):

    1. Determine the number of molecules:

    * One mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of particles (6.022 x 10^23).

    * So, 3.79 mol of CCl4 contains (3.79 mol) * (6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mol) = 2.28 x 10^24 molecules of CCl4.

    2. Determine the number of atoms per molecule:

    * Each molecule of CCl4 has 1 carbon atom and 4 chlorine atoms, for a total of 5 atoms.

    3. Calculate the total number of atoms:

    * Multiply the number of molecules by the number of atoms per molecule: (2.28 x 10^24 molecules) * (5 atoms/molecule) = 1.14 x 10^25 atoms.

    Therefore, there are 1.14 x 10^25 atoms in 3.79 mol of carbon tetrachloride.
