N_ANA xx× 0.150*mol0.150mol, where N_ANA == "Avogadro's number"Avogadro's number.

Explanation:

N_ANA ("Avogadro's number")(Avogadro's number) == 6.022xx10^23*mol^-16.022×1023mol1. This is simply another number like a dozen or a score or a century or a gross or a thousand or a million. It has the property that N_ANA ""^1H1H ATOMS has a mass of 1.001.00 gg precisely.

So, the answer is simply: 0.150*molxx6.022xx10^23*mol^-10.150mol×6.022×1023mol1 == ???? mercury atoms.

What is the mass of this number of mercury atoms?
