Answer 1

Olivia Anton

There are #6.022xx10^23# individual items of stuff in #1# #mol# of stuff.

Units of sodium acetate formula, then?

#=# #0.873# #cancel(mol)# #xx# #6.022xx10^23*cancel(mol^-1)# #"formula units " NaOAc# #=# #??# #"formula units"#.

This quantity represents how many ATOMS of hydrogen and sodium?

For sodium acetate, the formula unit is ( \text{NaC}_2\text{H}_3\text{O}_2 ). ( \text{Number of formula units} = \text{moles} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} ) ( \text{Number of formula units} = 0.873 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} )
