Question


Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?  [3 MARKS]
 


Options:
Answer: Option A
:

Each point: 1.5 Marks
1. Atomic mass of Na = 23 u (Given)


Then, gram atomic mass of Na = 23 g


Now, 23 g of Na contains = 6.022 x 1023 g number of atoms


Thus, 100 g of Na contains =   6.022×102323×100 number of atoms


= 2.6182 x 1024 number of atoms.



2. Again, atomic mass of Fe = 56 u (Given)


Then, gram atomic mass of Fe = 56 g


Now, 56 g of Fe contains = 6.022 x 1023 g number of atoms


Thus, 100 g of Fe contains = 6.022×102356×100 number of atoms


= 1.0753 x 1024 number of atoms.
