How much time would it take to distribute one Avogadro number of wheat grains, if 1010 grains are distributed each second?


We know that Avogadro number = 6.02 × 1023.

Given that rate of distribution = 1010 grains per second.


Thus, time required to distribute one Avogadro number of wheat grains: -


= Avogadro number / rate of distribution



= 6.023 x 1013 s



=1.909 x 106 years


Hence, the time taken to distribute one Avogadro number of wheat grains is 1.909 x 106 years.
