Examine the samples given:
a. 20 g of He
b. 44.8 L of NH3 at STP
c. 67.2 L of N2 at STP
d. 1 mol of H2SO4
e. 180 g of water What will be the ascending order of the total number of atoms in each sample?
Calculation of number of atoms in each:
a. Number of molecules = 3.011 × 1024 (calculated)
In He, there is only one atom
Thus, total number of atoms of He = 1 × Number of molecules
= 3.011 × 1024
b. Number of molecules = 1.204 × 1024 (calculated)
In NH3, there are four atoms
Thus, total number of atoms of NH3 = 4 × Number of molecules
= 4 × 1.204 × 1024
= 4.8 × 1024
c. Number of molecules = 1.806 × 1024 (calculated)
In N2, there are two atoms
Thus, total number of atoms of N2 = 2 × Number of molecules
= 2 × 1.806 × 1024
= 3.6 × 1024
d. Number of molecules = 6.022 × 1023 (calculated)
In H2SO4, there are seven atoms
Thus, total number of atoms of H2SO4 = 7 × No. of molecules
= 7 × 6.022 × 1023
= 4.21 × 1024
e. Number of molecules = 6.022 × 1024 (calculated)
In H2O, there are three atoms
Thus, total number of atoms of H2O = 3 × Number of molecules
= 3 × 6.022 × 1024
= 1.8 × 1025
The arrangement of the samples in increasing order of the number of atoms in each is:
20 g of He < 67.2 L of N2 at STP < 1 mol of H2SO4 < 44.8 L of NH3 at STP < < 180 g of water
