Compute the number of ions present in 5.85g of sodium chloride.

Explanation

To compute the number of ions present in 5.85 g of sodium chloride (NaCl), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the Molar Mass of Sodium Chloride (NaCl)
The molar mass of NaCl is calculated by adding the atomic masses of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl):
- Atomic mass of Na = 23 g/mol
- Atomic mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

**Molar Mass of NaCl = Atomic mass of Na + Atomic mass of Cl**
