- Using Dimensional Analysis
- Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
30 g O
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
Avogadro's Number
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Convert</u>
<u /> = 1.12913 × 10²⁴ atoms O
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>We are given 1 sig fig. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>
1.12913 × 10²⁴ atoms O ≈ 1 × 10²⁴ atoms O
To get the number of gold atoms, you have to divide the mass of the gold by the mass of the gold atom. It follows this simple equation 
.
Let x be the number of gold atoms. Plug in the values to a calculator.
x =
Both have the same units so the unit gram(g) can be cancelled.
x then would be equal to 1.53x10^22. So there are 1.53x10^22 atoms of gold in 5 g of gold
