Answer:
The correct answer is - 14.
Explanation:
In the given molecular formula of the aluminum sulphite which is Al2(SO3)3, this molecular formula there different type of elements are bonded together to form this compound each element has a specific number of atoms present. This compound has three elements that are aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen and the atoms are present are:
Al = 2 atoms represented by subscript
S = 3 atoms represented as whole subscripts of sulfite
O = 9 atoms 3 inside bracket and 3 outside of bracket that multiplies.
Thus, total number of atoms are 2+3+9 = 14
