The amount of gold atoms could be calculated by dividing the total weight of the gold with the mass of a single gold atom. Just convert the given weight to grams then divide it with 3.27x10^-22 grams. The answer would be 7.22x10^20.

Answer:

6.38*10²⁰ atoms of gold

Explanation:

236mg of gold = 236*10^-3g = 0.236g.

Now from the question,

1 atoms contains = 3.7*10^-22g.

X atoms will contain = 0.236g of gold.

Now we'll cross multiply and make x the subject of formula to find the amount of gold in 0.236g of gold.

X = (0.236 * 1) / 3.7*10^-22

X = 6.378*10^20 atoms

0.236g of gold contains 6.378*10^20 atoms of gold
