Answer: There are
1.415* 10^(23) molecules in 25.4 g of
N_2O_5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number
6.023* 10^(23) of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:


\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=(25.4g)/(108g/mol)=0.235moles

1 mole of
N_2O_5 contains =
6.023* 10^(23) molecules

Thus 0.235 moles of
N_2O_5 contains =
(6.023* 10^(23))/(1)* 0.235=1.415* 10^(23) molecules.

There are
1.415* 10^(23) molecules in 25.4 g of
N_2O_5
