1. Find the molar mass of sulfur:
* The molar mass of sulfur (S) is 32.06 g/mol.
2. Calculate the number of moles:
* Divide the given mass by the molar mass:
* Moles of sulfur = 64 g / 32.06 g/mol = 2 moles
3. Use Avogadro's number:
* Avogadro's number states that there are 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mole.
* Multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number:
* Number of atoms = 2 moles * 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mole = 1.2044 x 10^24 atoms
Therefore, there are approximately 1.2044 x 10^24 atoms in 64 g of sulfur.
