What number of Fe atoms and what amount of Fe atoms are in 500 g of Fe?

Known/Given:1 mole of Fe = 55.845g Fe (its atomic weight in grams)1 mole of Fe = 6.022 x 1023 atoms Fe (from Avogadro's number)Convert grams Fe to moles Fe.600.0g Fe x 1mol Fe/55.845g Fe = 10.74mol FeConvert moles Fe to atoms Fe.10.74mol Fe x 6.022 x 1023atoms Fe/1mol Fe = 6.468 x 1024atoms Fe
