The molecular formula of Sodium thiosulphate is given below:
Na₂S₂O₃
This means that in every 1 mole of sodium thiosulphate there are 2 moles of Sulphur atoms.
Therefore;
If 1 mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 2 moles of sulphur
Then 0.2 moles of Na₂S₂O₃ = 2 × 0.2/1
= 0.4 moles of sulphur.

Use Avogadro's constant and the 0.4 moles of sulphur to calculate the number of sulphur atoms.
(Avogadro's law states that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms or molecules)
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms
0.4 moles = 6.022 × 10²³ × 0.4/1
= 2.41 × 10²³
The number of sulphur atoms in 0.2 moles of Sodium thiosulphate is 2.41 × 10²³ atoms.
Na₂S₂O₃
This means that in every 1 mole of sodium thiosulphate there are 2 moles of Sulphur atoms.
Therefore;
If 1 mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 2 moles of sulphur
Then 0.2 moles of Na₂S₂O₃ = 2 × 0.2/1
= 0.4 moles of sulphur.
