Answer:

The number of oxygen in 7.9  × 10⁻¹ moles of CO₂ is 9.5116 × 10²³ atoms of oxygen

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of moles of CO₂ = 7.9 × 10⁻¹ moles

The number of molecules of CO₂ in one mole of CO₂ = 6.02 × 10²³

The number of molecules, [tex]N_{CO_2}[/tex], of CO₂ in 7.9 × 10⁻¹ moles is given as follows;

[tex]N_{CO_2}[/tex] = 7.9  × 10⁻¹ × 6.02 × 10²³ ≈ 4.76 × 10²³ molecules

The number of atoms of oxygen in one molecule of CO₂ = 2 oxygen atoms

Therefore;

The number of oxygen in 7.9  × 10⁻¹ moles of CO₂ = 2 × 4.76 × 10²³ ≈ 9.5116 × 10²³

The number of oxygen in 7.9  × 10⁻¹ moles of CO₂ ≈ 9.5116 × 10²³ atoms of oxygen.
