Answer:

There are 2.847094088x10^22 atoms.

- Prefix (green): 2.847094088

- Exponent (yellow): 22

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms in 0.568g of diamond, it is necessary to convert the mass to atoms using the carbon molar mass (12.01g/mol) and the Avogadro's number (6.02x10^23 atoms/mole):


0.568g*(1mole)/(12.01g)*(6.02*10^(23)atoms)/(1mole)=2.847094088*10^(22)atoms

So, there are 2.847094088x10^22 atoms.
