#1# #mol# #Pb(ClO_2)_2# contains #1# #mol# #Pb#, #2# #mol# #Cl#, and #4# #mol# #O#.

Explanation:

A mole of stuff of course contains #6.022xx10^23# indvidual items of that stuff. You specified lead chlorite, whose formula is as written. If you specified how many dozen #Pb#, #Cl# etc. atoms there were in a dozen molecules of lead chlorite, my answer would have been the same.

What is the mass of #1# #mol# #Pb(ClO_2)_2#??
