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

1. **Find the number of atoms:**
\[
\text{Number of atoms} = \text{number of moles} \times \text{Avogadro's number}
\]

2. **Substituting the values:**
\[
\text{Number of atoms} = 15.46 \, \text{moles} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \, \text{atoms/mole}
\]

3. **Calculating the result:**
\[
\text{Number of atoms} \approx 15.46 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \approx 9.31 \times 10^{24} \, \text{atoms}
\]

Therefore, there are approximately \(9.31 \times 10^{24}\) atoms of elemental oxygen in 15.46 moles of oxygen.
