How many argon (Ar) atoms are there in 1.5 102 g of argon?

Answer 1

2.3 × 1024 atoms of Ar

Answer 2

To find the number of argon atoms, we first need to determine the molar mass of argon: 39.95 g/mol. Next, we convert the given mass to moles using the molar mass: 1.5 x 10^2 g / 39.95 g/mol = 3.75 mol. Finally, we use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) to find the number of atoms: 3.75 mol x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol ≈ 2.26 x 10^24 argon atoms.
