Answer

$M_{total} = 1.11 \times 10^{-7} g $

Work Step by Step

The mass of a single $^{56}Mn$ nucleus is $m = (56 u) (1.661 \times 10^{–24} g/u) $ $ m = 9.30 \times 10^{–23} g$ And the total mass must be multiplied by number of nuclei, N $M_{total} = (1.19 \times 10^{15})(9.30 \times 10^{–23} g)$ $M_{total} = 1.11 \times 10^{-7} g $
