3.0e23 atoms Ne
"E" means 10^
Then we multiply it by a mole of Ne. By the definetion of a mole, it is always 6.022e23 atoms of an element.
So now, we do this:
3.0e23 atoms Ne x (1 mol Ne / 6.022e23 atoms Ne)
After that, we use molar mass. A mole of Neon is equal, in terms of grams, to its avg. atomic mass. This goes true for any element.
It ends up like this:
3.0e23 atoms Ne x (1 mol Ne / 6.022e23 atoms Ne) x (20.1797 g Ne / 1 mol Ne)
Now cancel out the "atoms Ne" and "1 mol Ne"
You end up with a grand total of...
*plugs everything into a calculator*
10.05298... g Ne.
We need to round to 2 sig. figs. (3.0) so now it's....
10 g Ne.
Note that this method can only be used for converting atoms of an element to mass in grams.

A COVALENT BOND, FORMS BETWEEN ELEMENTS WITH SIMILAR ELECTRONEGATIVITY AS SHARING OF ELECTRON PAIRS BETWEEN ATOMS IS EASIER AS THEY ARE IDENTICAL.
Explanation:
Bonding atoms with similar electronegativity values form covalent bonds.
A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
Covalent bonds form between two nonmetal atoms with identical or relatively close electronegativity values
Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons, also it is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself.
Pure covalent bonds result when two atoms of the same electronegativity bond. This occurs only when two atoms of the same element bond with each other.
The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the
sum of the molar weights of each component.
The molar masses of the elements are:
C = 12 amu
H = 1 amu
N = 14 amu
O = 16 amu
where 1 amu = 1 g / mol
Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the
total molecular weight is:
molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) +
2 (16 amu)
molecular weight = 123 amu
Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu
or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.
