Answer:


1.2x10^(24)g

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, it is possible to treat this problem by using a proportional factor which indicates one iron nail equals 2.0 grams:


(2.00g)/(1nail)

Now, for an amount of 6.022x10²³ nails, the corresponding mass will be:


6.022x10^(23)nail*(2.00g)/(1nail) \\\\1.2x10^(24)g

Best regards!
