Among the following, choose the ones with equal number of atoms. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- B, C, and D only
- B, D, and E only
- A, B, and C only
- A, B, and D only
Answer
(4) A, B, and D only
Solution
Moles of atoms = moles of substance × atoms per formula unit:
A. 212106 = 2 mol × 6 = 12 mol atoms
B. 24862 = 4 mol × 3 = 12 mol atoms
C. 24040 = 6 mol × 3 = 18 mol atoms
D. 122 = 6 mol × 2 = 12 mol atoms
E. 22044 = 5 mol × 3 = 15 mol atoms
A, B and D have equal numbers of atoms (12 NA).
Answer: (4)
