Calculate the number of molecules of Sulphur (S8) present in 16 g of solid Sulphur.r

We have to find the number of molecules present in 16g of solid sulphur.

The molecular mass of the sulphur molecule is 32 × 8 = 256 u.

1 mole of sulphur molecules is equal to 256 grams.

This means 256 g of solid sulphur contains = 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

Then, 16 g of solid sulphur contains =6.022 x 10²³ / 256 = 16 molecules

= 3.76375 x 10²² molecules

Therefore, 16 g of S₈ contains 3.76 x 10²² molecules.
