You first have to find how many moles of CO2 you have
so you find its molar mass, (Carbon=12 Oxygen = 16(2))
then you add 12+32 to get the molar mass which is 44
you should also be given a mass, of how much CO2 there is..
or else you cannot calculate the moles.
moles are mass/molar mass
once you get the moles
just multiply the number of moles by
Avogadros constant (6.02x1023)
Say if the mass was 4.56 g of C02 that you had
then you just do 4.56/44 = 0.103636363 mol
now multiply that by avogadro's constant
and you have the number of atoms/particles/formula units

∙ 13y agoTo determine the number of atoms in CO2, you look at the chemical formula. In this case, CO2 means one carbon atom (C) and two oxygen atoms (O) making a total of three atoms in a molecule of carbon dioxide.
2 atoms
There are two carbon atoms in one molecule of CO2.
Three atoms. Carbon dioxide is CO2
In one molecule of CO2, there is one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.
there are 3 in tottal
There are two carbon atoms in one molecule of CO2.
To find the number of atoms in 110 grams of CO2, you first need to determine the number of moles by dividing the mass by the molar mass of CO2 (44.01 g/mol). Next, you can use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) to convert moles to atoms. So, there are approximately 2.5 x 10^24 atoms in 110 grams of CO2.
For every molecule of CO2, you need 1 atom of carbon and 2 atoms of oxygen. So to combine with 0.00000000003 atoms of carbon, you would need 0.00000000006 atoms of oxygen, which cannot be physically represented as a fraction of an atom.
three: one carbon and two oxygen
One molecule of CO2 has one carbon atom and two oxygen toms. denoted by the formula CO2 So in two molecules of CO2 there are CO2 & another CO2 . Chemically this is shown as 2CO2, that is a figure is placed to the left of the molecular formula. Since there are CO2 & another CO2 , then there are two(2) atoms of carbon and four(4) atoms of oxygen.
Carbon : 1 Oxygen : 2
One .. CO2 or O=C=0
One Carbon (C) atom and two Oxygen atoms (O). CO2.
2 CO2 means there are two molecules of carbon dioxide. In one molecule of CO2 there is 1 carbon atom, and 2 oxygen atoms. So three atoms total. Therefore, in 2 molecules (each with 3 atoms) there are 6 atoms total. The molecules are made of atoms of carbon and oxygen. The atoms themselves are made of protons, electrons, and neutrons.
The number of atoms in a molecule depends on its formula. The definition of a mole is approximately 6.022 x 10^23 entities (like atoms or molecules). For example, a molecule of water (H2O) contains 3 atoms - 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen.
your equation is wrong. it should be c6h12o6 + 6 o2 --> 6 co2 + 6h2o The products contain 18 oxygen atoms (so do the reactants)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) contains three atoms per molecule: one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
