Answer:
n/2
Explanation:
If 12g of carbon contains n atoms it means that atomic mass = n atoms. So mass of magnesium =24 so in 24g there will be n atoms so in 12g it will be n/2
Lets do step by step 1 mole of carbon = gram molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams. 1g carbon = 1/12 mole 1g of carbon contains x atoms and 1g = 1/12 mole. Therefore 1/12 mole of carbon has x atoms so 1/12 mole of magnesium also contains x atoms. 1 mole of magnesium = 24g Therefore, 24 gram = 1 mole 1g = 1/24mole. 1/12 mole of magnesium = x atoms 1/24 mole of magnesium = x x 12/24 ( x multiplied by 12, divide by 24) = x/2 atoms 1 gram of magnesium has x/2.
I hope this is the answer you were looking for, I hope it helps.
