Question

If one mole of Carbon atom weight 12 g, what is the mass (in gram) of 1 atom of
Carbon?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A mole is defined as exactly equal to 6.022×1023 atoms. So, we know that a mole of carbon contains 6.022×1023 atoms. Therefore, we can write the mass of 6.022×1023 atoms = 12 g. Hence, the mass in grams of 1 atom of carbon is 1.993×10−23g .
