how many oxygen atoms would there be in 100.0 grams of sodium acetate?
How many oxygen atoms would there be in 100.0 grams of sodium acetate? Moles of sodium acetate is 100g x (1 mol Sodium Acetate/82.034g) = 1.219 mol. Moles of oxygen is 2 x 1.219mol = 2.438 mol of O. Finally, 2.438 mol x (6.02 x 10 /mol) = 1.47 x 10 oxygen atoms.
