How many sulfur atoms are there in 3.50 mol of sulfur?

To determine the number of atoms of a substance given its number of mols, multiply number of moles with the Avogadro's number which is approximately equal to 6.022x10^23.

To answer the problem above, multiply 3.50 mols with 6.022x10^23. This gives a product of 2.1077x10^24.

Thus, there are 2.1077x10^24 atoms of sulfur in 3.50 mols of sulfur.

Answer: [tex]21.1\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms in 3.50 mol of sulfur.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] of particles.

1 mole of sulfur [tex](S)[/tex] contains=[tex]6.022\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms

Thus 3.50 moles of sulfur [tex](S)[/tex] contains=[tex]\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 3.50= 21.1\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms

Thus there are [tex]21.1\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms in 3.50 mol of sulfur.
