The number of electrons in an atom of an element being always the same
as the number of protons in its nucleus is False.
<h3>What is an Electron?</h3>
This is a sub-atomic particle which is negatively charged and is usually
involved in chemical reactions.
Electropositive elements donates electrons while electronegative
elements accepts electrons during chemical reactions which is why the
number of proton and electron aren't always the same.

Technically, the answer should be 3.30 * 10^23 grams. But I think you mean either molecules, atoms, moles or grams of Ni2I6 with that number of molecules .
1 mole of Ni2 I6 = 6.02 * 10^23 molecules
x [mole] = 3.30 * 10^23 molecules
1/x = 6.02 * 10^23 / 3.30 * 10^23 Cancel the 10^23 on the right side
1/x = 6.02 / 3.30 Cross multiply
3.30 = 6.02 x Divide by 6.02
3.30 / 6.02 = x
x = 0.548 moles
what to do from here?
1 mole of Ni2I6 is
2 * Ni = 2 * 59 = 118 grams
6 * I = 6 * 131 = <u>786 grams</u>
Total = 904 grams
Set up a proportion.
<u>1 mole Ni2I6 </u> = <u>904 grams</u>
0.548 moles = x
1/0.548 = 904/x Cross multiply
x = 0.548 * 904
x = 495.4 grams of Ni2I6 <<<<<< Answer.
It can form dipole-dipole interactions but that’s all
