1. Determine the number of atoms per molecule:
* Sucrose has 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.
* Total atoms per molecule: 12 + 22 + 11 = 45 atoms
2. Use Avogadro's number:
* Avogadro's number tells us there are 6.022 x 10²³ molecules in one mole of any substance.
3. Calculate the total number of atoms:
* Atoms in 2.00 moles of sucrose: (2.00 moles) * (6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mole) * (45 atoms/molecule)
* Result: 5.42 x 10²⁵ atoms
Therefore, there are approximately 5.42 x 10²⁵ atoms in 2.00 moles of sucrose.
