How many atoms in 10.0 g of Ar?

1.51 x 10^23 atoms of Ar

Explanation:

Start out with what you're given.

10.0 g of Ar/1 * 1 mol/39.948 g Ar * 6.022*10^23 atoms/1 mol

(It's easier if you write it out.)

You always want to start out w/ what you're given and continue your unit conversions from there. Since you started out with grams of Argon, you want grams of Argon on the bottom to cancel it out. Once you found the unit conversion: 1 mol/39.948 g Ar (molar mass of Ar), now it's time to convert to atoms. Since 1 mol is up on top, put 1 mol on the bottom. Considering you're looking for atoms, use Avagradro's number: 6.022*10^23.

Once simplified, you should get 1.51 x 10^23 atoms of Ar.

***I hope this helps! I also suggest using a mole map, if you're interested.***

i believe the answer is a.
