Answer:
<em>3.27·10²³ atoms of O</em>
Explanation:
To figure out the amount of oxygen atoms in this sample, we must first evaluate the sample.
The chemical formula for sodium sulfate is <em>Na₂SO₄, </em>and its molar mass is approximately 142.05.
We will use stoichiometry to convert from our mass of <em>Na₂SO₄ </em>to moles of <em>Na₂SO₄</em>, and then from moles of <em>Na₂SO₄ </em>to moles of <em>O </em>using the mole ratio; then finally, we will convert from moles of <em>O </em>to atoms of <em>O </em>using Avogadro's constant.
19.3g <em>Na₂SO₄</em> · ·

After doing the math for this dimensional analysis, you should get a quantity of approximately <em>3.27·10²³ atoms of O</em>.
