Question

How many moles of nitrogen are in 3.7 moles of C8H11NO2?

Answer 1

Answer:

               3.7 Moles of Nitrogen

Explanation:

                      On observing the chemical formula C₈H₁₁NO₂ (might be formula of Dopamine) it is found that one mole of this compound contains;

8 Moles of Carbon

11 Moles of hydrogen

1 Mole of Nitrogen and

2 Moles of Oxygen respectively.

Calculate Number of Moles of Nitrogen:

As,

                   1 Mole of C₈H₁₁NO₂ contains  =  1 Mole of Nitrogen

So,

            3.7 Moles of C₈H₁₁NO₂ will contain  =  X Moles of Nitrogen

Solving for X,

                       X  =  (3.7 Moles × 1 Mole) ÷ 1 Mole

                       X  =  3.7 Moles of Nitrogen
