5.6×6.022×1023atoms

Explanation:

A mole of PCl3 contains

  • one mole of P
  • three moles of Cl

Therefore, you get a total of 4 moles of atoms per mole of PCl3. This means that 1.4 moles of PCl3 contain

1.4×4=5.6 moles of atoms

Each mole of atoms contains Avogadro's number, 6.022×1023, of atoms. Therefore, the sample contains

5.6×6.022×1023atoms.
