Answer 1

Answer: The number of atoms of plutonium present in given number of moles are $3.7\times 10^{24}$

Explanation:

We are given:

Number of moles of plutonium metal = 6.1 moles

According to mole concept:

1 mole of an element contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms.

So, 6.1 moles of plutonium will contain = $6.1\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=3.7\times 10^{24}$ number of plutonium atoms.

Hence, the number of atoms of plutonium present in given number of moles are $3.7\times 10^{24}$
