Answer:

Number of moles is defined as the ratio of given mass in g to the molar mass.The mathematical expression is given as:

Number of moles =Number of moles of compound = 12.7 moles (given)As, 1 mole of any compound is equal to particles.

where, is Avogadro number. Formula for calculating particles is given by:

where, N = number of particles, n = number of moles and is Avogadro number.

Put the values,= or Hence, number of particles of the compound is equal to

Answer:
76.49* 10^(23)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 Liters at STP and contains avogadro's number
6.023* 10^(23) of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

1 mole of compound contains =
6.023* 10^(23) particles

12.7 moles of compound contain =
(6.023* 10^(23))/(1)* 12.7=76.49* 10^(23) particles.
