[itex]^{62}Cu[/itex] is 61.932586 amu. I would like to know how many exposed nuclei are in 1.0 gram of [itex]^{62}Cu[/itex]. I have two calculations below, hopefully one of them is correct...
Method 1.
1.0 gram [itex]^{62}Cu[/itex] x [itex]\frac{1 kg}{1000 g}[/itex] x [itex]\frac{1 amu}{1.660566 x 10^{-27}kg}[/itex] x [itex]\frac{1 mole ^{62}Cu}{61.932586 amu}[/itex] x [itex]\frac{6.022 x 10^{23} nuclei}{1 mole ^{62}Cu}[/itex] = 5.8555 x 10[itex]^{45}[/itex] [itex]^{62} Cu[/itex] nuclei
Method 2.
1.0 gram [itex]^{62}[/itex]Cu x [itex]\frac{1 mole ^{62}Cu}{61.932586 grams}[/itex] x [itex]\frac{6.022 x 10^{23} nuclei}{1 mole ^{62}Cu}[/itex] = 9.723 x 10[itex]^{21}[/itex] [itex]^{62}Cu[/itex] nuclei
