The molar mass of ammonium acetate is 77.083 g/mol. A student uses 0.100 mol of ammonium acetate in a chemical reaction. The student claims that the reaction uses ( 0.100 mol ) ( 77.083 g/mol ) = 7.71 g of ammonium acetate, which has ( 7.71) (6.022 X 10^23) = 4.64 X 10^24 molecules.
In one to two sentences, explain the mistake that the student made and determine the correct number of molecules of ammonium acetate used in the reaction.
