Answer:

4.97 mol

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Ca = 2.99×10²⁴

Number of moles of Ca = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

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 = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

2.99×10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.497×10¹ mol

4.97 mol
