The data is insufficient .
moles can be calculate only if mass and molar mass of a compond are known.
so, here I am assuming given compound as N2 i.e., nitrogen.
==> molar mass of N2 = 28 g /mol i.e., 1 mole of N2 have 28 g of wieght.
( molar masses are fixed for every compound )
1 microgram / liter = 1 microgram / 1 liter
and 1 microgram = 10-6 grams
i.e., 10-6 grams / 1 microgram = 1 ( no units )
similarly,
1 mL = 10-3 L ==> 103 mL = 1L i.e., 1000 mL / 1 liter = 1 ( no units )
Now,
1000 micrograms = 1000 * ( 1 microgram ) = 1000* ( 1 microgram * (10-6 grams/ 1 microgram ) )
= 1000 * ( 10-6 grams) = 10-3 grams
and similarily, for moles of N2 ( nitrogen), 1 mol of nitrogen = 28 grams ==> 1 gram = (1/28 ) moles of N2
Therefore, 1000 micrograms = 1g = (1/28 ) moles
similarly, 1 liter = 1liter * (1000mL / 1 liter ) = 1000mL
So,
1000 microgram / liter = 1000 * ( 1 microgram / 1 Liter ) = 1000* 1 microgram / 1000mL = 10-3 grams / 1000mL
= 10-3 * (1/28) moles / 1000 mL = 10-3 * ( 3.57 * 10-2 ) / 1000mL = 3.57 * 10-8 mol /mL
Therefore, 1000microgram / L = 3.57 * 10-8 mol /mL
Now, 10000 microgram / L = 10 * (1000 microgram / L ) = 10 * 3.57 * 10-8 mol /mL = 3.57 * 10-7 mol /mL
and 100000 microgram / L = 100* ( 1000microgram /L ) = 100 * 3.57 * 10-8 mol /mL = 3.57 * 10-6 mol /mL
