the answer is D 0.0556 mol

divide the given number of atoms 3.35x10^22 by 6.02x10^23 Avogadro's number(the number of atoms in one mol of anything) to get the total number of Moles. It's merely a fraction of a whole. 3.35/60.2 if you cancel out the tens. 1.0 mol mercury(the molar mass is the mass number on a periodic table) It couldn't possibly be so few atoms is to be gold or atoms of mercury as there are 6.02x10^23 atoms in a 0.0556 mol.

have a nice day hope this helps !!!!!!!
