Homework Statement
You are given a 250mg tablet of Vitamin C, C6H8O6. How many atoms are in the Vitamin C sample?
The Attempt at a Solution
Formula Mass = 6(12.01)+8(1.01)+6(16.00) = 176.1 g/mol
250mg (1g/1000mg)(1mole/176.1g)(6.02e23molecules/1mole) = 8.546 molecules
How do I convert to atoms? I thought it was the same number but the webassign program said that it was incorrect.
