Solution
First, find the number of moles of sodium chloride in the 0.12 mg by using the formula moles = mass/molar mass.
∴
n
=
m
M
r
=
0.12
1000
(
23
+
35.5
)
g
/
m
o
l
=
2.051.10
−
6
m
o
l
e
s
But, 1 mol contains an Avogadro number of particles, ie
6.022
×
10
23
particles.
Therefore by ratio and proportion,
2.051.10
−
6
m

will contain
1.2
×
10
18
particles of NaCl.
