Answer: 8 moles of H atoms.
- A 2 moles of H atoms
- B 4 moles of H atoms
- C 8 moles of H atoms
- D 16 moles of H atoms
Correct answer: C. 8 moles of H atoms
Explanation: Each CH<sub>4</sub> molecule has 4 hydrogen atoms. 2 moles CH<sub>4</sub> contain 8 moles of hydrogen atoms.
Mass connects to moles via molar mass, and moles connect to particle count via Avogadro's number or to gas volume via the 22.4 L/mol rule at STP.
Concept context
The mole is chemistry's counting unit. Learn to relate mass, volume, and number of particles using Avogadro's number and molar mass, the foundation of all stoichiometry and reaction calculations.
