Answer:

0.071 moles of Na₃PO₄ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of Na₃PO₄ = 4.3× 10²² molecules

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

4.3× 10²² molecules × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.71× 10⁻¹ mol

0.071 mol

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
