9.6×103 total moles of ions.

Explanation:

A sodium iodide unit is conceived to derive from one Na+ and one I. Because matter is electrically neutral these combine in a 1:1 fashion.

You specified 4.80×103 mol of NaI. In this molar quantity there are 4.80×103 mol of Na+ ions, and 4.80×103 mol of I; i.e. 9.6×103 of individual ions.
