Re: E.7 calculate atoms in moles
1 mole is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon 12, which equals 6.022 * 10^23 (Avogadro constant). Specifically for this question, I think that it could be solved by dividing the number of carbon atoms by Avogadro constant, according to the definition of 1 mole. This was very helpful. Thank yo...
