Rachel has a sample containing 2 moles of carbon. how many atoms of carbon are in this sample? a. 2.044 × 1023 atoms b. 6.022 × 2023 atoms c. 1.204 × 1024 atoms d. 6.022 × 1046 atoms

Answer is: c. 1.204 × 10²⁴ atoms of carbon.

n(C) = 2 mol; amount of substance of carbon.

Na = 6.02·10²³ 1/mol; Avogadro constant (the number of constituent particles, in this example atoms, that are contained in the amount of substance given by one mole).

N(C) = n(C) · Na.

N(C) = 2 mol · 6.02·10²³ 1/mol.

N(C) = 12.04·10²³ = 1.204·10²⁴; number of carbon atoms in a sample.

Answer is C

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !
