Question

How many chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine?

Answer 1

Answer:

5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.

Explanation:

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023*10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number represents a quantity without an associated physical dimension, so it is considered a pure number that allows describing a physical characteristic without an explicit dimension or unit of expression. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mole of the compound contains 6.023 * 10²³ atoms, 8.3 moles of the compound how many atoms does it have?

$amount of atoms=\frac{8.3 moles*6.023*10^{23}atoms }{1 mole}$

amount of atoms≅ 5*10²⁴ atoms

5*10²⁴ chlorine atoms are found in 8.3 moles of chlorine.
