_____________
In sample 90% silver means that mass of silver is 0.9g and 0.1 g is mercury
So.......
Mass of Ag = 0.9g
Molar mass of Ag = 107g/mol
Atoms of silver =?
Moles of Ag = mass / molar mass
Moles of Ag = 0.9/107
Moles of Ag = 0.0084mol
Now ......
Moles of Ag = number of atoms of Ag / Avagadro number
Number of atoms of silver = moles of Ag × Avagadro number
Number of atoms of Ag = 0.0084 × 6.023 ×10^23
Number of atoms of Ag = 0.05 ×10^23
Number of atoms of Ag = 5 ×10^21

Hey !!
(Ag) = 0.9 g
Now, Molar mass = 107 g/mol
We know that, Moles of Ag = Mass / Molar mass
Now, 0.9 / 107
= 0.0084 mol
Moles of atom of Ag = Moles of Ag * Avagadro number
NOTE :- Avagadro value is ''6.023 * 10²³
Ag = 0.0084 * 6.023 * 10²³
= 0.05 * 10²³
= 5 * 10²¹
Hope it helps you !!
