Based on the formula for Sulfuric acid pictured above, there are molecules of sulfuric acid. In each molecule there are hydrogen atoms (H), sulfur atom (S), and oxygen atoms (O). This means that there are atoms total in this substance.

Answer 1

To find the total number of atoms in sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), we first identify the number of each type of atom in a single molecule:

• Hydrogen (H): 2 atoms
• Sulfur (S): 1 atom
• Oxygen (O): 4 atoms

Now, let's calculate the total number of atoms in one molecule of sulfuric acid:

\[ \text{Total atoms in one molecule} = \text{Hydrogen} + \text{Sulfur} + \text{Oxygen} = 2 + 1 + 4 = 7 \text{ atoms} \]

If there are n molecules of sulfuric acid, the total number of atoms in n molecules would be:

\[ \text{Total atoms} = n \times 7 \]

So, if you have a specific number of molecules (n), you would multiply that number by 7 to get the total number of atoms in that many molecules of sulfuric acid.
