Heating oil, C15H32, has a high flash point so even a lit match will not burn heating oil in its liquid state. How many moles of heating oil contain 7.05 x 1024 atoms
According to Avogadro's Hypothesis, 1 mole of any substances (Atom/molecule/ions/electrons) contain Avogadro Number i.e. 6.022*1023 number of particles (Atom/molecule/ions/electrons).
1 mole of Heating Oil C15H32 molecules = 6.022*1023 Heating oil molecules.
1 Heating molecule C15H32 = 15 C atoms + 32 H atoms = 47 atoms.
1 mole of Heating Oil C15H32 molecules = 47 * 6.022*1023 Atoms = 2.83*1025 Atoms.
Now as per question and above calculations we write,
If, 1 mole of Heating Oil C15H32 molecules = 2.83*1025 Atoms.
then say N mole of Heating Oil C15H32 molecules = 7.05*1024 Atoms.
On cross multiplication,
N * 2.83*1025 Atoms = 1 mol * 7.05*1024 Atoms.
N = 7.05*1024 Atoms / 2.83*1025 Atoms *1 mole
N = 0.249 mol
0.249 mole of Heating oil C15H32 will have 7.05*1024 Atoms.
