Molecular Weight of CH4= 16 g/mole
So, number of moles of CH4 in 1.6 g = 1.6 /16 = 0.1
Since, in 1 mole CH4 there are 6.022 x 10^23 molecules of CH4
therefore in 0.1 mole there will be 0.1 x 6.022 x 10^23 molecules of CH4now, in 1 CH4 molecule there are 10 electrons (6 in C + 4 in H) hence, total electrons in 0.1 mole or 1.6 g = 10 x 0.1 x 6.022 x 1023 = 6.022 x 1023
