# A student collects a \(22\text{ g}\) sample of propane gas, \(\text{C}_3\text{H}_8\text{(g)}\) (molar mass \(44\text{ g/mol}\)). What is the total number of carbon atoms in the sample?

A student collects a \(22\text{ g}\) sample of propane gas, \(\text{C}_3\text{H}_8\text{(g)}\) (molar mass \(44\text{ g/mol}\)). What is the total number of carbon atoms in the sample?

- **A.** \(9.0 \times 10^{23}\)
- **B.** \(2.4 \times 10^{24}\)
- **C.** \(3.3 \times 10^{24}\)
- **D.** \(3.6 \times 10^{24}\)
