Question 13

A sample contains 15.5 g of sodium oxide, Na2O\mathrm{Na_2O}Na2​O, an ionic compound. Relative atomic masses: Na=23\mathrm{Na}=23Na=23, O=16\mathrm{O}=16O=16. Use the Avogadro constant 6.02×1023 mol−16.02\times10^{23}\,\mathrm{mol^{-1}}6.02×1023mol−1.

What is the number of sodium ions in this sample?
