1) Silicon dioxide formula: SiO2 ....... 2 is a subscript for the O atom
2) From the formula you have 1 molecula of SiO2 contains 1 atom of SiO2
3) Then, 0.100 mol of SiO2 contains 0.1 mol of Si
4) Multiply by Avogadro's number: 0.100mol * 6.022*10^23 atoms/mol= 6.02*10^22 atoms
Answer: 6.02*10^22 atoms
The temperature increase is from 19.5 to 100 degrees centigrade or 80.5 degrees centigrade. The calorie increase is 2.50 x 1000 x 0.238902957619 or a total of 597.25 calories. 597.25/80.5 = 7.419 calories per degree centigrade. 7.419/135 grams = 0.0549 calories/gram/degree centigrade. The conversion from kilo joules involves multiplying the calories per joule x 1000 to get the number of calories in one kilo joule and then by the 2.5.
