I figure N = 14.01, H = 1.008 + 4,
C=12.01 times 2,
H = 1.008 times 3 and O = 16 times 2. I got the answer 1.95 × 10^23 from 0.3243 × 6.02
10^24. Am I missing a step?
## of atoms in 25g of NH4C2H3O2?

your answer is the number of molecules
how do you convert that to atoms?

I'm confused how does 0.3243 moles times avogadros number not give me the number of atoms. A classmate told me I'm missing a step but I thought that would be the final answer.

your result of 0.3243 is moles of molecules. multiplying avogadros number gives number of molecules
avogadros number is the number of entities per mole, so 1 mole of NH4C2H3O2 contains avogadros number molecules

Does my next step have to do with the subscripts?
I see what you mean now I have to convert from molecules to atoms
