To determine the number of moles in a sample, you can use Avogadro's number, which states that there are 6.02 x 10^23 atoms in one mole of a substance.
Given that the sample contains 7.2 x 10^24 atoms, you can calculate the moles by dividing the number of atoms by Avogadro's number:
7.2 x 10^24 atoms / 6.02 x 10^23 atoms/mol = 12 moles
Therefore, the correct answer is 12 moles.
