  • Calculating the Number of Molecules in 1 kg of Hydrogen Gas: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the number of molecules in 1.0 kg of hydrogen gas:

    1. Convert kilograms to grams:

    * 1.0 kg = 1000 g

    2. Calculate the number of moles:

    * Molar mass of H₂ = 2 g/mol (1 g/mol for each hydrogen atom)

    * Moles of H₂ = mass / molar mass = 1000 g / 2 g/mol = 500 mol

    3. Use Avogadro's number:

    * Avogadro's number = 6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mol

    * Number of molecules = moles x Avogadro's number

    * Number of molecules = 500 mol x 6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mol

    * Number of molecules = 3.011 x 10²⁶ molecules

    Therefore, there are approximately 3.011 x 10²⁶ hydrogen molecules in 1.0 kg of hydrogen gas.
