-How many grams would be equal to 1 mol of the compound shown in the figure above?
(carbon = 12, oxygen = 16, hydrogen = 1)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compound is likely CO2 (carbon dioxide), which consists of 1 carbon atom (12 g/mol) and 2 oxygen atoms (16 g/mol each), totaling 44 g/mol. However, if the compound is C2H5OH (ethanol), it would be 2 carbons (24 g/mol), 6 hydrogens (6 g/mol), and 1 oxygen (16 g/mol), totaling 46 g/mol. Since neither matches exactly, the closest reasonable assumption for a common compound is CO2, which is 44 g/mol, but the closest option given is 60 g/mol, suggesting a possible error in the figure or options.
