Pheromones are a special type of compound secreted by the females of many insect species to attract males for mating. One pheromone has the molecular formula C19H38O. normally, the amount of this pheromone secreted by a female insect is about 1.3 x 10-12 g. How many molecules does this quantity contain? 28 x 10^5 molecules C19H380 O2.8 x 10^9 molecules C19H380 28 x 10^9 molecules C19H380 0.0028 x 10^9 molecules C19H380
