Firstly you have forgotten to divide by 4 because the standard
phosphorus allotrope the white phosphorus consists of molecules P4.
After that you should divide the obtained value by Avogadro's number.
How have you obtained such a large value? It is seemed that you added
23 to 25 in power, while it should be subtracted.

i did not get that. i divided 1.20 x 10^25 by Avogadro's number and i
got 1.99 x 10^47 mol P

Each molecule of P4 contains 4 atoms, that's why there's that "4"
factor
