Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The chemical formula given is O3Sb12, which means each molecule contains 3 oxygen atoms. Therefore, 3 moles of O3Sb12 would contain 3 moles * 3 = 9 moles of oxygen atoms, not an option provided, suggesting a misunderstanding in the interpretation of the formula or a typographical error in the options. The correct interpretation based on the options provided would be to consider the formula as having a single oxygen atom, making the answer 3 moles * 1 = 3 moles of oxygen atoms, which is also not directly reflected in the options given. Given the options and the likely intent behind the question, there seems to be a mistake in the formulation of the question or the answer choices.
