What will be the mass of one 12C atom in g?


By Avogadro’s Law

1 mole of carbon contain 6.023×1023 carbon atoms = 12g of Carbon


6.023×1023 atoms of carbon 12g of Carbon


1 atom of Carbon X g of Carbon


X = [12]/ 6.023×1023


= 1.992×10-23g of Carbon


Therefore, mass of 1 atom of Carbon is 1.992×10-23g.
