  • Atomic weight of copper = 63.5 g
  • 1 mole of copper contains = 63.5g = 6.023 × 10²³ atoms of copper
  • 1 g of copper contains

  • = ( 6.023 * 10²³)/(63.5)= 9.4 × 10²¹ atoms
  • Therefore, 3.11g of copper contains

  • = 3.11 * 9.4 * {10}^(21) \\
  • = 29.234 × 10²¹ atoms

Hope you could get an idea from here.
