Answer:
1.505*10^{24} molecules
Explanation:
The number of molecules is independent of the subtance, and only depends on the number of moles.
To calculate the number of molecules in a substance with n moles you use the following formula:
[tex]m=nN_A[/tex]
m: number of molecules
NA: Avogadro's number = 6.02*10^23 molecules/mol
n: moles of the substance = 2.5 mol
You replace the values of n and NA in the equation for m and you obtain:
[tex]m=(2.5mol)(6.02*10^{23}molecules/mol)\\\\m=1.505*10^{24}\ molecules[/tex]
hence, the number of molecules is 1.505*10^24
