Answer:
2.4 ×10^24 molecules of the herbicide.
Explanation:
We must first obtain the molar mass of the compound as follows;
C3H8NO5P= [3(12) + 8(1) + 14 +5(16) +31] = [36 + 8 + 14 + 80 + 31]= 169 gmol-1
We know that one mole of a compound contains the Avogadro's number of molecules.
Hence;
169 g of the herbicide contains 6.02×10^23 molecules
Therefore 669.1 g of the herbicide contains 669.1 × 6.02×10^23/ 169 = 2.4 ×10^24 molecules of the herbicide.
