Answer

$0.0156$ mole $C_{13}H_{18}O_2$.

Work Step by Step

1. Find the conversion factors that we wil use. Avogadro's number: $1 \space mole = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \space atoms$. $\frac{1 \space mole}{6.022 \times 10^{23} \space atoms}$ and $\frac{6.022 \times 10^{23} \space atoms}{1 \space mole}$ According to the subscript in "C": 13 moles $C$ = 1 mole $C_{13}H_{18}O_2$ $\frac{ 13 \space moles \space C}{ 1 \space mole \space C_{13}H_{18}O_2}$ and $\frac{ 1 \space mole \space C_{13}H_{18}O_2}{ 13 \space moles \space C}$ 2. Calculate the amount of ibuprofen moles: $ 1.22 \times 10^{23}$ atoms $C \times \frac{1 \space mole}{6.022 \times 10^{23} \space atoms} \times \frac{ 1 \space mole \space C_{13}H_{18}O_2}{ 13 \space moles \space C} = 0.0156$ mole $C_{13}H_{18}O_2$
