How many atoms are in 2.56 mol of (NH4)3 PO4?
Please quickly answer
calculate the molar mass of the compound .!
Multiply first by the Avogrados number.
yes ,,,15.416 x 10^23 atoms
but that is not the answer on the back. I get 1.54*10powerof24 but answer in the back says 3.08*10powerof25
There are 2.56 x 6 x 10^23 molecules in a mole of the compound, but each molecule has a lot of atoms that need to be counted.
explain more please
Take the compound description and count how many atoms of each element make up one molecule of the compound. e.g., NH4 has 5 atoms
\[2.56 \text{ mol} (NH_4)_3PO_4\times \frac{6.02 \times 10^{23} \text{ molecules}(NH_4)_3PO_4}{1 \text{ mol}(NH_4)_3PO_4} \times \frac{20 \text{ atoms}}{1 \text{ molecule}(NH_4)_3PO_4}\]
ok thanks add me on snapchat johncenafan69
how many atoms are in \((NH_4)_3 PO_4\)? well, \(3\times(1+4)+1+4=15+5=20\) atoms Avogadro's constant tells us that \(1\text{ mol}\) contains approximately \(6.022\times10^{23}\) molecules so the total number of atoms is just$$6.022\times10^{23}\cdot20=1.204\times10^{25}$$
But what oldrin said is the number of atoms in one mole. Multiply that by 2.56 to get the answer.
