Question

Some forms of vitamin D, C₂₈H₄₄O, can be found in red meat. How many total atoms are in 5 molecules of C₂₈H₄₄O

Answer 1

3.01 × 10^24 atoms of vitamin D

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of atoms, molecules or ions present in a substance is given by the Avogadro's number which is 6.02 × 10^23.

Hence;

1 molecule of vitamin D contains 6.02 ×10^23 atoms

5 molecules of vitamin D contains 5 × 6.02 ×10^23/1

= 3.01 × 10^24 atoms of vitamin D
