To find the number of atoms of elemental oxygen in 15.46 moles, you can use Avogadro's number, which is approximately \(6.022 \times 10^{23}\) atoms/mole.

The calculation can be done as follows:

\[
\text{Number of atoms} = \text{Number of moles} \times \text{Avogadro's number}
\]

Substituting in the values:

\[
\text{Number of atoms} = 15.46 \, \text{moles} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \, \text{atoms/mole}
\]

Now, performing the multiplication:

\[
\text{Number of atoms} \approx 15.46 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \approx 9.30 \times 10^{24} \, \text{atoms}
\]

Therefore, there are approximately \(9.30 \times 10^{24}\) atoms of elemental oxygen in 15.46 moles of oxygen.
