    1 mol of Carbon = 12 grams.

    x mol of Carbon = 55 grams

    12*x = 1 * 55

    x = 55/12

    x = 4.583333 mols of carbon

    1 mol of anything is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms

    4.58333333 mol = x

    1/4.5833333 = 6.02 * 10^23/x

    x = 4.58333 * 6.02*10^23

    x = 2.7591 * 10^23 Carbon atoms
