How many atoms of phosphorus are in 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide?

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

tetraphosphorus decoxide = P4O10

Molar mass of P4O10 = 283.89 g/mol

Mass of P4O10 = 4.5 grams

Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of P4O10

Moles P4O10 = mass P4O10 / molar mass P4O10

Moles P4O10 = 4.5 grams / 283.89 g/mol

Moles = 0.016 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of P

For 1 mol P4O10 we have 4 moles of phosphorus

For 0.016 moles P4O10 we have 4*0.016 = 0.064 moles P

Step 4: Calculate number of P atoms

Number of P atoms = moles P * number of Avogadro

Number of P atoms = 0.064 moles * 6.022*10^23

Number of P atoms = 3.85 * 10^22 atoms

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms
