"0.400 mol N"_2"O"_5" contains "2.41 molecules N"_2"O"_5".

Explanation:

1"mole N"_2"O"_5"="6.022xx10^23"molecules N"_2"O"_5"

To determine the number of molecules of "N"_2"O"_5" in the given number of moles, multiply the given moles times 6.022xx10^23"molecules/mol".

0.400cancel("molN"_2"O"_5)xx(6.022xx10^23"molecules N"_2"O"_5)/(1cancel("mol N"_2"O"_5))="2.41xx10"^23 "molecules N"_2"O"_5"
