    6.0x10^22 molecules

    First, let's calculate the molar mass of CO2, start by looking up the atomic weights of carbon and oxygen. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999

    Molar mass CO2 = 12.0107 + 2*15.999 = 44.0087 g/mol

    Now, calculate the number of moles of CO2 you have: 4.4 g / 44.0087 g/mol = 0.099980231 mol

    Finally, multiply by Avogadro's number to get the number of molecules of CO2.

    0.099980231 * 6.0221409x10^23 = 6.0209504x10^22

    Now round to 2 significant figures since that's how accurate our input data was, giving: 6.0x10^22 molecules.
