See below.

Explanation:

This is a dimensional analysis problem with the following setup:
(7.370*10^25) * ((1mol)/(6.022 *10^23)) (7.3701025)(1mol6.0221023)
The answer is obtained once you plug it into your calculator:

122.3122.3 moles Cl2

Explanation:

Since Avogadro's number (6.02214179×10^236.02214179×1023) is the number of molecules in one mole, all you have to do is divide the given molecules by Avogadro's number.

(7.370*10^(25)"molecules")/(6.02214179×10^23"molecules"*"mole"^(-1))7.3701025molecules6.02214179×1023moleculesmole1

(7.370*10^(25)color(red)(cancelcolor(black)"molecules")color(red)" mols")/(6.02214179×10^23color(red)(cancelcolor(black)"molecules")*color(red)(cancelcolor(black)("mole"^(-1)))

122.381708319 " mols"

Due to the 4 significant figures, the answer would be:

122.4 " mols Cl"_2
