Answer:

1.8 x 10²⁴ atoms Ag

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the amount of silver (Ag) atoms by multiplying the moles by Avogadro's number. It is important to arrange the conversion in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ atoms = 1 mole

3.0 moles Ag 6.022 x 10²³ atoms
---------------------- x -------------------------------- = 1.8 x 10²⁴ atoms Ag
1 mole
