Given:

# Molecules of NaOH = 1.50 * 10²³

To determine:

The # moles of NaOH present in the given molecules

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition:

1 mole of NaOH corresponds to Avogadro's number i.e. 6.023*10²³ molecules

Therefore the moles of NaOH corresponding to the given molecules would be = 1.50*10²³ molecules NaOH * 1 mole NaOH/6.023*10²³ molecules NaOH

= 0.249 moles

Ans: 0.249 moles of NaOH
