One mole of carbon atom weighs 12g, the number of atoms in it is equal to, (Mass of carbon -12 is 1.9926×10-23g
  1. 1.2×1023
  2. 6.022×1022
  3. 12×1022
  4. 6.022×1023

Solution

1 mole of carbon atom \(=12 \mathrm{~g}\)
1 mole of a carbon atoms \(=6.022 \times 10^{23}\) atoms
Hence, mass of \(6.022 \times 10^{23}\) atoms of carbon \(=12 \mathrm{~g}\)
Mass of 1 atom of carbon \(=\frac{12}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}=1.9 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~g}\)
