Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 9.15*10^{24} \ atoms \ K}}$

Explanation:

To convert atoms to moles, Avogadro's Number must be used: 6.022*10²³.

This tells us the amount of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case it is the atoms of potassium. We can create a ratio.

$\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 \ mol \ K }$

Multiply by the given number of moles: 15.2

$15.2 \ mol \ K *\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 \ mol \ K }$

The moles of potassium cancel.

$15.2 *\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 }$

The denominator of 1 can be ignored.

$15.2 * {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{$

Multiply.

$9.15344*10^{24} \ atoms \ K$

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated that is the hundredth place. The 3 in the thousandth place tells us to leave 5.

$9.15*10^{24} \ atoms \ K$
