Dimethylsulfoxide (C2H6SO), also known as DMSO. How many moles of carbon are in 4 moles of DMSO?
a 1
b 2
c 4
d 8
e not enough info
See your last post.
To determine the number of moles of carbon in 4 moles of DMSO (Dimethylsulfoxide), we need to examine the molecular formula of DMSO and count the number of carbon atoms.
The molecular formula of DMSO is C2H6SO, which means it contains 2 carbon atoms (C2), 6 hydrogen atoms (H6), one sulfur atom (S), and one oxygen atom (O).
Since there are 2 carbon atoms in one mole of DMSO, for 4 moles of DMSO, the total number of carbon atoms would be 4 moles multiplied by 2 carbon atoms/mole.
Therefore, the number of moles of carbon in 4 moles of DMSO is 8 moles.
In conclusion, the answer is d) 8.
