Salt (NaCl) is formed by ionic bonds, so it does not come in molecules. Instead, it is called a formula unit, and there are two atoms in this particular one.

How many atoms will the scientist need to make a billion molecules of salt?

To make a billion molecules of salt (NaCl), the scientist will need 6 billion atoms total. This is because each NaCl molecule is composed of one sodium atom and one chlorine atom, so for every molecule of salt, there are two atoms. Multiplying the number of molecules by 2 gives the total number of atoms needed.

Is there the same number of atoms in a molecule of salt as in a molecule of oxygen gas?

Yes, NaCl and O2 both are molecules that are comprised or composed of two atoms.Mono-atomic Oxygen is not a molecule. It is an element, or a single atom.A molecule is defined as having two or more atoms bonded together. Di-atomic Oxygen gas (O2) is constructed from two atoms of oxygen.In a sodium salt molecule the chemical formula is NaCl, or one atom of chlorine covalently bonded with one atom of sodium. A calcium salt is CaCl2.So, mono-atomic oxygen does not have the same amount of atoms as salt but oxygen gas does.
