Question

How many atoms of each element are in 4Na3PO4?

Answer 1

There are 8 atoms total in the compound Na3PO4.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

`4Na_3PO_4` is a compound which consists of four moles of oxygen, phosphorus and oxygen.

Number of sodium atom in
`4Na_3PO_4` is,
`4* 3=12\ atoms`

Number of phosphorus atom in
`4Na_3PO_4` is,
`4* 1=4\ atoms`

Number of oxygen atom in
`4Na_3PO_4` is,
`4* 4=16\ atoms`

Hence, the no of atoms of each element are as follows :

Sodium, Na = 12 atoms

Phosphorus, P = 4 atoms

Oxygen, O = 16 atoms

Hence, this is the required solution.
