Answer:

33atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

An atom is the smallest particle that can take part in a chemical reaction.

The given compound is:

3(NH₄)₂S

Here we have 3 moles of (NH₄)₂S ;

So:

Total number of atoms:

2 atoms of N

2 x 4 atoms of H

1 atom of S

Total = 2 + 8 + 1 = 11 atoms

So;

The total atom = 3 x 11 = 33atoms
