Answer:

The molar mass of Na is 22.99 g/mol (rounded to two decimal places).

To calculate the number of atoms in 30 g Na, we first need to convert the mass to moles using the molar mass:

moles of Na = 30 g / 22.99 g/mol = 1.304 mol (rounded to three decimal places)

Next, we can use Avogadro's number, which tells us the number of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in one mole of a substance. Avogadro's number is approximately 6.02 x 10^23 particles per mole.

So, to find the number of atoms in 1.304 moles of Na:

number of atoms = 1.304 mol x (6.02 x 10^23 atoms/mol) = 7.854 x 10^23 atoms

Therefore, there are approximately 7.854 x 10^23 atoms in 30 g Na.
