Answer:

The answer is

4.33 × 10²⁴ Fe atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of atoms in an element given it's number of moles we use the formula

N = n × L

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question

n = 7.2 mol

The number of atoms in iron ( Fe) is

N = 7.2 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

4.33 × 10²⁴ Fe atoms

Hope this helps you
