Answer:

6.38×10²¹ molecules

Explanation:

Formula for molybdenum chloride is:

Mo₂Cl₁₀

Molar mass is : (Molar mass for Mo) . 2 + (Molar mass for Cl) . 10

95.94  . 2 + 35.45  . 10 = 546.38 g/mol

We determine moles that are contained in 5.790 g of Mo₂Cl₁₀

5.790 g . 1 mol /546.38 g = 0.0106 moles

We count the molecules:  0.0106 mol . 6.02×10²³ molecules / mol =

6.38×10²¹ molecules

Remember that 6.02×10²³ is also called Avogadro's number (NA) which is the number of particles of anything, that are contained in 1 mol.
