Butane, ch3-ch2-ch2-ch3, is a hydrocarbon fuel used in lighters. how many moles of molecules are there in a 350. gram sample of butane

6.03 moles.

1 molecule of butane contains 4 carbon atoms and ten hydrogen atoms.

The molar mass is 4 times the atomic mass of carbon, 12 g/mol, plus 10 times the atomic weight of hydrogen, 1 g/mol.

Molar mass = 4 * 12 g/mol + 10 * 1 g/mol = 58 g/mol.

This means that 1 mole of butane has a mass of 58 g.

To figure out how many moles are in a sample of butane, divide the mass of sample in grams by 58 grams

Number of moles in sample = 350 g / 58 g/mol = 6.03 moles.
