Question : 10
Total: 36
In three moles of ethane (C2H6) , calculate the following :
(i) Number of moles of carbon atoms.
(ii) Number of moles of hydrogen atoms.
(iii) Number of molecules of ethane.
Solution:  
(i) 1 mole of C2H6 contains 2 moles of carbon atoms.
Number of moles of carbon atoms in 3 moles of C2H6 = 3 × 2 = 6
(ii) 1 mole of C2H6 contains 6 moles of hydrogen atoms.
Number of moles of hydrogen atoms in 3 moles of C2H6 = 3 × 6 = 18
(iii) 1 mole of C2H6 = 6.022 × 1023 molecules
Number of molecules in 3 moles of C2H6 = 3 × 6.022 × 1023
= 1.807 × 1024 molecules
