the number of moles in 950000000atoms of plutonium

1 answer

To find the number of moles in 950000000 atoms of plutonium, we need to use Avogadro's number, which is 6.022 x 10^23.

1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 x 10^23 particles (atoms or molecules).

Firstly, we can calculate the number of moles of plutonium in 1 atom using this formula:

1 atom / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mole = 1.66 x 10^-24 mole/atom

Next, we can use this value to find the number of moles in 950000000 atoms of plutonium:

950000000 atoms x (1.66 x 10^-24 mole/atom) = 1.58 x 10^-15 moles

Therefore, there are 1.58 x 10^-15 moles in 950000000 atoms of plutonium.
