  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

1.25 × 10²³ atoms Ca

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:                              [tex]\displaystyle 1.25 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Ca(\frac{1 \ mol \ Ca}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Ca})[/tex]
  2. Multiply:                            [tex]\displaystyle 0.207572 \ mol \ Ca[/tex]

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

0.207572 mol Ca ≈ 0.208 mol Ca
