  • Calculating Atoms in 10 Grams of Lead: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the number of atoms in 10 grams of lead:

    1. Find the molar mass of lead:

    * The molar mass of lead (Pb) is approximately 207.2 g/mol.

    2. Calculate the number of moles:

    * Divide the mass of lead (10 g) by the molar mass (207.2 g/mol):

    10 g / 207.2 g/mol = 0.048 moles

    3. Use Avogadro's number:

    * Avogadro's number states that there are 6.022 x 10^23 atoms in one mole of any substance.

    * Multiply the number of moles (0.048 moles) by Avogadro's number:

    0.048 moles * 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol = 2.89 x 10^22 atoms

    Therefore, there are approximately 2.89 x 10^22 atoms in 10 grams of lead.
