Okay, Carol.

You have to know the formula : n = m / M

where, n = number of moles

m = given mass

M = Molar mass of the substance.

In this case, n = ?

m = 17.5 g

M = molar mass of Sodium = 22.9897

So, number of moles, n = 17.5 / 22.9897 = 0.7612 or 0.76 moles.

Note: There is another formula you MUST know N = n x NA

where, N = number of particles (atoms, molecules, etc),

n = number of moles

NA = Avogadro’s Number: 6.023 * 10 ^ 23
