Calcium sulfate has an aqueous solubility of 0.21 g per 100 mL of water at 20 degrees Celsius.

Avagadro's law states that 1 mole of any substance has 6.022×10²³ molecules or atoms. That is 6.022×10²³ mol⁻¹

Find the mole of 68 g of calcium sulphate (CaSO4)

moles = mass / molar mass

molar mass of CaSO4 is 136

mole = 68/136
         = 0.5 moles

Therefore the number of molecules in CaSO4 is:

0.5 moles  × 6.022×10²³ mol⁻¹   =  3.0115 × 10²³

Therefore there are 3.0115 ×10²³  molecules of CaSO4 in the solution.

When 1 molecule of CaSO4 ions dissociate, 2 ions of Ca ions and SO4 ions are formed.

That means 3.0115 ×10²³  molecules will form  
  
       = 3.0115 ×10²³  molecules x 2
        
        =  6.023 ×10²³ ions in the solution.
