Explanation:

Silver has a molar mass of

What does this mean? It means that if I have such a mass of silver, there are Avogadro's number,

individual silver atoms.

So all I have to do is divide the mass by the molar mass, and multiply this number (a molar quantity!) by Avogadro's number.  

So, moles of silver
