  • Calculating Moles from Formula Units: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the number of moles in a given number of formula units:

    1. Understand the Relationship

    * Avogadro's Number: One mole of any substance contains 6.022 x 10^23 particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.).

    2. Set up the Calculation

    * Start with the given number of formula units: 5.546 x 10^37

    * Divide by Avogadro's Number: (5.546 x 10^37 formula units) / (6.022 x 10^23 formula units/mol)

    3. Calculate

    * The result will be the number of moles of zinc phosphate.

    Calculation:

    (5.546 x 10^37 formula units) / (6.022 x 10^23 formula units/mol) ≈ 9.21 x 10^13 moles

    Therefore, there are approximately 9.21 x 10^13 moles in 5.546 x 10^37 formula units of zinc phosphate.
