Calculate the mass (in g) of 2.1 x 1020 atoms of Os.

here's the procedure to find it friend

Explanation:

How do you find the mass in grams of an atom?

In order to determine the mass of one atom of an element, you must determine its molar mass, which is its atomic weight on the periodic table in g/mol, and you need to know the relationship between moles and the number of atoms: 1 mol of atoms = 6.022×1023 atoms . Then divide the molar mass by 6.022×1023 atoms/mol .

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
