The number of phosphorus atoms : 2.408 x 10²⁴
The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance
1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles
Can be formulated
N=n x No
N = number of particles
n = mol
No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³
moles of Mg₃(PO₄)₂ = 2
moles of phosphorous(P) atoms in Mg₃(PO₄)₂ ⇒ mol ratio of elements in the compound(for P=2)
[tex]\tt 2\times 2=4[/tex]
The number of atoms of phosphorous(P) :
[tex]\tt 4\times 6.02\times 10^{23}=2.408\times 10^{24}[/tex]
