(1.34*g)/(74.10*g*mol^-1) xx N_A, where N_A = "Avogadro's number"

Explanation:

There are (1.34*g)/(74.10*g*mol^-1) = ?? " moles calcium hydride".

Now, it is a fact that 1 "mole" of stuff, there are 6.022xx10^23 individual items of that stuff.

You have 0.0181 mol. Therefore:

0.0181 mol xx 6.022xx10^23*mol^-1 = ??" formula units of calcium hydroxide".
