Answer:

1.01 x 10^24 molecules

Explanation: This problem is solved by remembering Avogadro's number and since we have the mass of CO, we can easily calulate the number of moles.

Molecular Weight CO : 28.01 g/mol

47.2 g *  1mol / 28.01 g = 1.68 mol

Now 1 mol of CO is 6.022 x 10^23 molecules ( Avogadro's Number) then

1.68 mol CO * 6.022 x  10^23 =  1.01 x 10^24 molecules
