**Question:**

What quantity in moles of silver atoms do you have if you have \(5.08 \times 10^{21}\) atoms of silver? (The mass of one mole of silver is 107.87 g.)

**Explanation:**

To find the number of moles, use Avogadro's number, which is \(6.022 \times 10^{23}\) atoms/mole. The formula to calculate moles is:

\[
\text{Moles of silver} = \frac{\text{Number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}
\]

Substitute the given number of atoms:

\[
\text{Moles of silver} = \frac{5.08 \times 10^{21}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}
\]

Finally, solve for the quantity in moles. This formula provides a conversion from atoms to moles using a fundamental constant in chemistry.
