Iso-pentyl acetate (C7H14O2), the compound responsible for the scent of bananas, can be produced commercially. Interestingly, bees release about 1 microgram (1x10-6g) of this compound when they sting, in order to attract other bees to join the attack. How many molecules iso-pentyl acetate are released in a typical bee sting? (AW:C=12.011, H=1.008, O=15.999)
