How many sulfur atoms are there in 3.50 mol of sulfur?
To determine the number of atoms of a substance given its number of mols, multiply number of moles with the Avogadro's number which is approximately equal to 6.022x10^23.
To answer the problem above, multiply 3.50 mols with 6.022x10^23. This gives a product of 2.1077x10^24.
Thus, there are 2.1077x10^24 atoms of sulfur in 3.50 mols of sulfur.
Answer: \(21.1\times 10^{23}\) atoms in 3.50 mol of sulfur.
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number \(6.023\times 10^{23}\) of particles.
1 mole of sulfur \((S)\) contains=\(6.022\times 10^{23}\) atoms
Thus 3.50 moles of sulfur \((S)\) contains=\(\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 3.50= 21.1\times 10^{23}\) atoms
Thus there are \(21.1\times 10^{23}\) atoms in 3.50 mol of sulfur.
