Answer:

2.7 moles of neon contain 16.3 × 10²³ atoms of neon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of neon = 2.7 mol

Number of atoms of neon = ?

Solution:

We will use using Avogadro number to solve given problem.

"It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance"

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole of neon = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of neon

2.7 mole of neon × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of neon / 1 mole of neon

16.3 × 10²³ atoms of neon

Thus, 2.7 moles of neon contain 16.3 × 10²³ atoms of neon.
