Number of atoms = number of moles x 6.02 x 10²³
Further explanation
The mole is the number of particles contained in a substance
1 mol = 6.02 x 10²³ particles
mol of Sodium carbonate-Na₂CO₃
MW = 106 g/mol
mass Na
[tex]\tt \dfrac{2\times 23}{106}\times 5.3=2.3[/tex]
mol Na
[tex]\tt \dfrac{2.3}{23}=0.1[/tex]
number of atoms = 0.1 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 6.02 x 10²²
mass C
[tex]\tt \dfrac{12}{106}\times 5.3=0.6[/tex]
mol C
[tex]\tt \dfrac{0.6}{12}=0.05[/tex]
number of atoms = 0.05 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 3.01 x 10²²
mass O
[tex]\tt \dfrac{3.16}{106}\times 5.3=2.4[/tex]
mol O
[tex]\tt \dfrac{2.4}{16}=0.15[/tex]
number of atoms = 0.15 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 9.03 x 10²²
