How many atoms are in a drop of mercury that has a diameter (d) of 1.0 mm?
Use:
1 cm = 10 mm (exact)
Volume of a sphere is 4/3̀πr³ where r is the radius and r = 1/2d
Density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³
Relative atomic mass of mercury = 200.59 g/mol
One mole of anything = 6.022 × 10²³ units of that thing
6.0 × 10²³
2.1 × 10¹⁹
1.7 × 10²⁰
1.7 × 10²³
2.1 × 10²²
