Answer:

2.4mol

Explanation:

In order to calculate numbers of moles we have to divide the given mass by the molar mass of the substance (ibuprofen) n= m/M

To calculate the molar mass we have

C13= 12*13= 156

H18= 1*18=18

O2= 16*2 =32

Molar mass M = 153+18+32= 206g

Given the mass m= 250g per tablet

Hence number of moles in one tablet is n= 250/206= 1.2 mol

Therefore the total number of ibuprofen you took is 1.2*2 (for the two tablets) = 2.4 moles
