If you are given the number of molecules in an unidentified chemical compound, can you calculate the number of moles in this sample?


yes, because you know that each mole contains 6.02 x 1023 molecules


yes, as long as you can also measure the mass of the sample


no, because the number of moles depends on the volume of the sample


no, because the number of moles depends on the identity of the substance

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10²³) is used to calculate the actual number of ions/atoms/moles present in the molecules of a chemical compound. To do that, avogadro's number is multiplied by the number of molecules of the compound - this is because the number of atoms/ions/moles present in one mole of any substance/compound is 6.02 × 10²³. Hence, one can calculate the the number of moles in the sample because the avogadro's number and the number of molecules of the unknown sample is known.
