Atoms are made up of three subatomic particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus.
All protons have a positive charge.
All neutrons have no charge or are neutral.
Electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge.

hope it make sense to u :)
Answer:
10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Number of molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ molecules
Number of mole of NH₃ =?
The number of mole of NH₃ can be obtained as follow:
From Avogadro's hypothesis,
6.02×10²³ molecules = 1 mole
Therefore,
6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 6.21×10²⁴ / 6.02×10²³
6.21×10²⁴ molecules = 10.32 moles
Thus, 6.21×10²⁴ molecules contains 10.32 moles of ammonia NH₃
The molecules or atoms that are formed by gain or loss of one or more valence electrons are said to be ions.
When atom loss one or more valence electrons, results in formation of cation whereas when atom gain one or more valence electrons, then formation of anion occurs. Cations carry positive charge and anions carry negative charge.
In general, cations are smaller than the neutral atoms from which they are formed and anions are larger than the neutral atoms.
As cations are smaller than the related neutral atoms because the valence electrons are lost which are farthest away from the nucleus. After that, taking more electrons distant from the cation results in reduction of radius of the ion.
Thus, aluminium cation consist of few electrons which results in fewer occupied energy levels by the electrons further results in reduction of radius i.e. smaller size.
Hence, given statement is true i.e. aluminium atom is larger than the aluminium cation as cation has fewer occupied energy levels.
