1. Calculate the number of moles:
* Oxygen (O):
* Molar mass of oxygen = 16.00 g/mol
* Moles of oxygen = (10.0 g) / (16.00 g/mol) = 0.625 mol
* Calcium (Ca):
* Molar mass of calcium = 40.08 g/mol
* Moles of calcium = (10.0 g) / (40.08 g/mol) = 0.249 mol
2. Calculate the number of atoms:
* Avogadro's number: 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol
* Oxygen:
* Atoms of oxygen = (0.625 mol) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) = 3.76 x 10^23 atoms
* Calcium:
* Atoms of calcium = (0.249 mol) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) = 1.50 x 10^23 atoms
Conclusion:
10.0 g of oxygen has more atoms than 10.0 g of calcium.
