Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating the number of hydrogen atoms in 180 grams of glucose involves using the molecular formula of glucose (C6H12O6) and the Avogadro constant (6.022 x 10^23).

First, calculate the molar mass of glucose by adding the atomic masses of its elements:

C6H12O6 = (6 x 12.01) + (12 x 1.01) + (6 x 16.00) = 180.18 g/mol

Next, use the molar mass to find the number of moles of glucose in 180 grams:

180 g / 180.18 g/mol = 0.999 moles

Finally, multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's constant to find the number of hydrogen atoms:

0.999 mol x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol = 6.02 x 10^23 hydrogen atoms
