Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conversion problem:

Using the molar mass of Gold (given in a periodic table) which is 196.97g/mol

you have


(3.60*10^-5 g) *(1moles)/(196.97g)

you always arrange the equation in a way to cancel whatever you don't want (grams) and leave what you do want (moles). Here grams cancel (top and bottom), so you're left with:


((3.60*10^-5 g) *(1))/(196.97) = 1.83*10^-7 moles of Gold
