Answer:
3.56x10²³ atoms
Explanation:
To solve this question we need first to determine the moles of iron (II) chloride, FeCl₂, using its molar mass. Then, using Avogadro's number we can solve for the number of atoms:
<em>Moles FeCl₂ - Molar mass: 126.751g/mol-</em>
25g FeCl₂ * (1mol / 126.751g) = 0.1972 moles
<em>Number of atoms:</em>
1 mole of FeCl₂ are 6.022x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂, that means 0.1972moles are:
0.1972mol * (6.022x10²³ molecules / 1mol) = 1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂
In 1 molecule of FeCl₂ there are 3 atoms (1 of Fe and 2 of Cl), in 1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂ there are:
1.188x10²³ molecules of FeCl₂ * (3atoms / molecule) =
<h3>3.56x10²³ atoms</h3>
