Aluminum Sulfide = Al2S3
molar mass = 150 g/mole
moles Al2S3 present in mixture = 54.0 g x 1 mole/150 g = 0.360 moles
moles of Al = 0.360 moles Al2S3 x 2 moles Al/mole Al2S3 = 0.72 moles Al
moles S = 0.360 moles Al2S3 x 3 moles S/mole Al2S3 = 1.08 moles S
moles Gallium = 6.022x10^24 atoms x 1 mole Ga/6.022x10^23 atoms = 10 moles Ga
moles N2 gas at STP = 74.2 ml x 1 L/1000 ml x 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.00331 moles N2
Adding up all the moles of the elements, one has 0.720 + 1.08 + 10.0 + 0.00331 = 11.7 moles (to 3 significant figures)
