Answer:
4.47 x 10²² atoms
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of Bismuth = 15.5g
Unknown:
Number of atoms = ?
Solution:
To find the number atoms, first solve for the number of moles in this element first.
Number of moles = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]
Number of moles = [tex]\frac{15.5}{209}[/tex] = 0.074mole
So:
1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
0.074 mole of Bismuth will contain 0.074 x 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
= 4.47 x 10²² atoms
