Moles

How do I change the bottom bit into moles instead of atoms? Picture below

How many atoms in one mole.

am I doing it right by dividing it by 1000 or do I need to divide by a different number
would it be 6.0235 x 10'23 then add in my own results and divide?

if you have 1 x 10^22 atoms, how many moles is that if one mole = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms?

I have no idea, I seriously hate moles in chemistry 😩

it clicked trust me. when I was first year I had no idea what was going on, lmao I was so hopeless, you just need to persist.

Remember what a mole is. It's simply just the amount of 'entities' (an entity is any particle; electrons, hydrogen ions, uranium atoms...) we have. One mole has 6.022 X 10^23 entities or 'stuff'.

So if you have 1 X 10^22 of these atoms, then we divide this by Avogadro's number to find the amount of moles we have:

1 X 10^22/6.022 x 10^23.

Can you show us the rest of the question because I'm not sure why you've multiplied by Avogadros?

Looool, thank you! Here’s the full question, I’m stuck on the top two. 07938434-08A1-4440-9F53-27CB2FABD72E.jpg.jpeg

yeah, so the equation concentration = mole/volume can be rearranged into concentration * volume = moles.

So whatever the concentration is, multiply this by the volume (in dm^3!! to convert from cm3 to dm3, just divide by 1000).
