Well, what is the mass of #6.022xx10^23# #"platinum atoms?"#

Explanation:

You have no doubt twigged that here we must use molar quantities, and one mole of platinum atoms has a mass of #195.1*g#.

And so we take the product of the quotient....

#(5.32xx10^21*"platinum atoms")/(6.022xx10^23*"platinum atoms"*mol^-1)xx195.1*g*mol^-1#

#~=2*g#...
