Answer

a) $20.47\times10^{23}$ b) $58.4\times10^{20}$ c) $137.9\times10^{23}$ d) $1.294\times10^{23}$

Work Step by Step

1 mole of any substance contains $6.022\times10^{23}$ entities. Therefore, a) 3.4 mol Cu contains $3.4$ $\times$ $6.022\times10^{23}$ = $20.47\times10^{23}$ atoms of Cu. b) $9.7\times10^{-3}$ mole C contains $9.7\times10^{-3}\times6.022\times10^{23}$ = $58.4\times10^{20}$ atoms of C c) 22.9 mole Hg contains $22.9\times6.022\times10^{23}$ = $137.9\times10^{23}$ atoms of Hg. d) 0.215 mole of Na contains $0.215\times6.022\times10^{23}$ = $1.294\times10^{23}$ atoms of Na.
