Question

Arrange in the incresing order of mass in grams
(1) One atom of silver (2) one-gram atom of nitrogen (3) One mole
calcium (4) mole of oxygen molecules (5) 10²³ atoms of carbon (6) One gram of iron​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1 molecule of oxygen=O

2

∴ Mass of O

(2) 1 atom of Nitrogen=

N

A

1

moles

=

6.022×10

1

moles

=1.66×10

−24

moles

∴ Mass of 1 atom of Nitrogen=1.66×10

−24

=23.2×10

−24

g

(3) 1×10

−10

gm molecule of oxygen=1×10

−10

moles of O

2

∴ Mass of 1×10

−10

gm molecule of oxygen=1×10

(4) Mass of copper=1×10

−10

gm

Comparing the masses in (1), (2), (3) and (4)

we get, (2)<(1)<(4)<(3)

Therefore, answer is (II)<(I)<(IV)<(III).
