    3.67 moles of N

    Explanation:

    The epinephrine's chemical formula is: C₉H₁₃O₃N

    We were told that a chemist found that in a mesaure of epinephrine, he found 33 moles of C

    We must know that 9 moles of C are in 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N so, let's make a rule of three:

    If 9 moles of C are found in 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N

    Therefore 33 moles of C must be found in (33.1) / 9 = 3.67 moles of C₉H₁₃O₃N

    There is a second rule of three, then.

    In 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N we have 1 mol of N

    Then, 3.67 moles C₉H₁₃O₃N must have (3.67. 1) / 1 = 3.67 moles of N

    Remember 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N has 9 moles of C, 13 moles of H, 3 moles of O and 1 mol of N
