The atoms of carbon are 3.03 * 10^23 atoms of carbon

How many atoms of  carbon are there?

We know that we have to first obtain the number of moles of the aspirin given the mass we have.

Thus;

Molar mass of aspirin = 180 g/mol

Number of moles = 10.0 g / 180 g/mol = 0.056 moles

Now, the number of carbon atoms is obtained from;

9 *  0.056 moles * 6.02 * 10^23

= 3.03 * 10^23 atoms of carbon
