Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

mass of Gold = 35.12 g

mass number of gold = 197 g (from the periodic table)

1.- To calculate the number of moles use proportions

197 g of gold ----------- 1 mol

35.12 g of gold -------- x

x = (35.12 x 1)/197

x = 0.18 moles of gold

2.- To calculate the number of atoms also use proportions and the Avogadro's number.

1 mol of gold ------------ 6.023 x 10 ²³ atoms

0.18 moles of gold ----- x

x = (0.18 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

x = 1.084 x 10²³ atoms
