Question
Number of atoms in 558.5 gram Fe (at. wt. of Fe = 55.85 g mol-1) is
Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: A
Correct answer
Atwice that in 60 g carbon
Step-by-step explanation
Number of moles of Fe in 558.5 gm of Fe is
10
Number moles of Fe in 558.5 gm Fe is = 10
Since here Fe is monoatomic then no. of atoms in 10 moles Fe is
10 1 NA
10 NA
For Option (A) Atomic Mass of Carbon is 12 g then no. of moles in 60 g Carbon is
Here Carbon is also monoatomic then no. of atoms in 5 moles of Carbon
5 1 NA
5 NA
Now we can clearly see 10 is twice of 5, so option (A) is correct.
