Which operation converts moles to particles?

Explanation:
Avogadro's number tells how many particles are in one mole. To convert from moles to particles, you multiply by Avogadro's number. So, moles × 6.022×10^23 gives the number of particles. For example, 0.75 moles would be 0.75 × 6.022×10^23 ≈ 4.52×10^23 particles. Other options don’t give a particle count: converting grams to moles requires molar mass (a separate step); dividing Avogadro's number by moles mixes up units and doesn't yield a particle count; and dividing particles by Avogadro's number would return moles, not particles.
