What is the total number of moles of 'C' atoms and 'H' atoms respectively present in following n mole molecule?
Show Hint
For simple molecular structures, the number of moles of atoms is directly proportional to the number of atoms in the formula. Multiply by the number of moles of molecules to get the result.
Step 1: Analyze the molecular structure.
The structure of the molecule in the question consists of a carbon-carbon bond (C-C) with each carbon atom bonded to hydrogen atoms. The number of atoms of C and H can be deduced by counting them in the molecular structure. Step 2: Count the number of atoms.
For every molecule:
- There are 4 carbon atoms per molecule (2 C atoms are bonded to each other, and 2 more are bonded to hydrogen atoms).
- For every carbon atom, there are 2 hydrogen atoms.
Since the question refers to \(n\) mole of the molecule, we need to multiply the number of atoms in one molecule by \(n\). Thus:
- The number of moles of carbon atoms is \(4n\),
- The number of moles of hydrogen atoms is \(2n\). Step 3: Final Answer.
Thus, the total number of moles of 'C' atoms and 'H' atoms respectively is \(4n\) and \(2n\), corresponding to option \((1)\).
