Explanation:

Step 1: Define

85 g AgNO₃ (silver nitrate)

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

[PT] Molar Mass of Ag - 107.87 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of AgNO₃ - 107.87 + 14.01 + 3(16.00) = 169.88 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

  1. Set up:                              [tex]\displaystyle 85 \ g \ AgNO_3(\frac{1 \ mol \ AgNO_3}{169.88 \ g \ AgNO_3})(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ AgNO_3}{1 \ mol \ AgNO_3})[/tex]
  2. Multiply/Divide:                                                                                                [tex]\displaystyle 3.01313 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ AgNO_3[/tex]

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.

3.01313 × 10²³ molecules AgNO₃ ≈ 3.0 × 10²³ molecules AgNO₃
