Question

How many hydrogen atoms are present in one molecule of ammonium acetate `NH_4C_2H_3O_2`?

Answer 1

Surely there are `7* mol` `"hydrogen atoms"` in ONE mole of `"ammonium acetate"`?

Explanation:

We gots the ammonium salt of acetic acid....

`"H"_3"CCO"_2"H"(aq)+"NH"_3(aq) rarr underbrace("H"_3"CCO"_2^(-)"NH"_4^+(aq))`
`" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "color(white)(/)"ammonium acetate"`

We start off with SEVEN moles of hydrogen atoms, and surely we finish with SEVEN moles of hydrogen atoms. I think that this salt can be isolated.

Answer 2

None.

Explanation:

Once an atom becomes part of a compound it is no longer an atom.
