Answer:
There are 3.523x10²³ molecules in 0.585 moles of lactic acid.
Explanation:
To solve this problem we need to use Avogadro's number, which is defined as the number of molecules (or atoms, in the case of an element) that are in 1 mole:
There are 6.023x10²³ molecules in 1.0 mole
With that information in mind, we convert lactic acid moles into molecules:
- 0.585 mol * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 3.523x10²³ molecules
