Answer: The number of formula units in the given amount of sodium oxide is
1.5* 10^(23)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula units are defined as lowest whole number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. It is calculate by multiplying the number of moles by Avogadro's number which is
6.022* 10^(23)

We are given:

Number of moles of sodium oxide = 0.25 moles

Number of formula units =
0.25* 6.022* 10^(23)=1.5* 10^(23)

Hence, the number of formula units in the given amount of sodium oxide is
1.5* 10^(23)
