#10^(23) prot ons# (order of magnitude, you asked)

Explanation:

If one proton has a mass of #1.67 xx 10^-27 kg#, and there are #10^3# grams in one kilogram, one gram of protons contains

#1 g((1kg)/(10^3g))((1 prot on)/(1.67 xx 10^(-27)kg)) = 6.00 xx 10^23 prot ons#

and the order of magnitude is thus in #10^23#
