The mass of any substance will remain the same regardless of its state of matter. Using water as an example, its volume increases when it is boiled to a gas or when it is frozen from a liquid state to the solid state ice. The volume and temperature will change as it moves through the states of matter, however the amount of individual molecules of oxygen and hydrogen that form water will remain the same and this constitute mass.
<span>The s sublevel has just one orbital, so can contain 2 electrons max. The p sublevel has 3 orbitals, so can contain 6 electrons max. The d sublevel has 5 orbitals, so can contain 10 electrons max. And the 4 sublevel has 7 orbitals, so can contain 14 electrons max.
So, having this in mind, 10 electrons in total can be contained in the 4d sublevel.

K₃PO₄ → 3K⁺ (aq) + PO₄³⁻(aq)
One mole of PO₄³⁻ ion gets dissociated from one mole of K₃PO₄
As per the definition of Avogadro's number, 1 mole = 6.022 x 10²³ ions
One mole of PO₄³⁻ ions x (6.022 x 10²³ ions/ 1 mole of PO₄³⁻ ions )
= 6.022 x 10²³ ions
Therefore , there are 6.022 x 10²³ PO₄³⁻ ions in a mole of K₃PO₄.
The answer is the principal quantum number
Hope this helps
