Note:
A unit cell of diamond has 8 carbon atoms and has a volume of 10⁻²¹ cm³.
Carbon diamond has a density of about 3.52 g/cm³

Therefore the number of atoms in a carbon diamond with a mass of 52 mg is
[tex]( \frac{8 \, atoms}{10^{-21} \, cm^{3}} )*( \frac{1 \, cm^{3}}{3.52 \, g} )*(52 \times 10^{-3} \, g) = 1.182 \times 10^{20} \, atoms[/tex]

Answer: 1.182 x 10²⁰ atoms
