K3Fe(CN)6

K - 3 atoms
Fe - 1 atom
C - 6 atoms
N - 6 atoms

Altogether : 3+1+6+6= 16 atoms

Answer : The total number of atoms represented by the formula
K_3Fe(CN)_6 is,
96.3* 10^(23)

Explanation :

The given compound is,
K_3Fe(CN)_6

In the given compound, there are three moles of potassium (K) atoms, one moles of iron (Fe) atom, six moles of carbon (C) atoms and six moles of nitrogen (N) atoms.

Thus, the total moles of
K_3Fe(CN)_6 = 3 + 1 + 6 + 6 = 16

As we know that,

1 mole contains
6.022* 10^(23) number of atoms.

So, 16 moles contains
16* 6.022* 10^(23)=96.3* 10^(23) number of atoms.

Therefore, the total number of atoms represented by the formula
K_3Fe(CN)_6 is,
96.3* 10^(23)
