1. Avogadro's Number
* Avogadro's number tells us that there are 6.022 x 10²³ atoms in one mole of any element.
2. Setting up the Calculation
* We know we have 1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms of sulfur.
* We want to find out how many moles this represents.
3. The Calculation
* Divide the number of atoms by Avogadro's number:
(1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms S) / (6.022 x 10²³ atoms/mole) = 3.01 moles of sulfur
Therefore, there are 3.01 moles of sulfur in 1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms of sulfur.
