  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

4.17 × 10²³ atoms CaCl₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:
    \displaystyle 4.17 \cdot 10^(23) \ atoms \ CaCl_2((1 \ mol \ CaCl_2)/(6.022 \cdot 10^(23) \ atoms \ CaCl_2))
  2. Multiply/Divide:
    \displaystyle 0.692461 \ mol \ CaCl_2

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

0.692461 mol CaCl₂ ≈ 0.692 mol CaCl₂
