How many atoms are in the mole of magnesium

6.02 × 10²³ atoms.

Explanation:

According to the Avogadro number, the one mole of any substance have 6.02 × 10²³ atoms.

The number 6.02 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number. it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one gram atoms of element, one gram ions of substance or one gram molecules of a compound.

For one mole of magnesium.

24.305 g of Mg = 1 mole of magnesium =  6.02 × 10²³ atoms of magnesium.

Other example includes:

18 g of water = one mole of water =  6.02 × 10²³ molecules of water.

23 g of sodium = one mole of sodium =  6.02 × 10²³ atoms of sodium.

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.
