Calculate the number of moles for 500.

0 g of Iron (Fe)
One mole of Iron Sample constitute molecular weight of 26.98 g which is in accordance to
IUPAC
Number of moles of a substance =
Number of moles of Iron

Weight of a substance
Molecular weight of a substance

500 g Fe

55.85 g Fe

8.95 mole Fe
8.95 mole

Therefore, number of moles of iron associated is


Calculations for number of atoms associated for 500.0 g of Fe will be as follows:

6.022 1023
1 mole of Fe contains

atoms whose atomic weight is 55.85 g

Here relation between atoms and weight of iron can be symbolically represented as

6.022 1023 atoms Fe


55.85 g Fe
6.022 1023 atoms Fe

55.85 g Fe

23
53.91 10 atoms

Now, for 500 g of Fe the number of atoms associated 500 g Fe

53.911023 atoms
Therefore, number of atoms associated to weigh 500 g is
