Question

How many atoms of each element are in 4Na3PO4?

Answer 1

Explanation:

$4Na_3PO_4$ is a compound which consists of four moles of oxygen, phosphorus and oxygen.

Number of sodium atom in $4Na_3PO_4$ is, $4\times 3=12\ atoms$

Number of phosphorus atom in $4Na_3PO_4$ is, $4\times 1=4\ atoms$

Number of oxygen atom in $4Na_3PO_4$ is, $4\times 4=16\ atoms$

Hence, the no of atoms of each element are as follows :

Sodium, Na = 12 atoms

Phosphorus, P = 4 atoms

Oxygen, O = 16 atoms

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer 2

There are 8 atoms total in the compound Na3PO4.
