Question

Using the average atomic mass, calculate the mass in grams of 143 iron atoms

Answer 1

1326.6 × 10⁻²³g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of iron = 143 atoms

Average atomic mass of iron = 55.845 amu

Mass of iron = ?

Solution:

It is known that,

55.845 g of iron = one mole of iron = 6.02× 10²³ atoms

For 143 atoms:

143 atoms /6.02× 10²³ atoms × 55.845 g

23.754 × 10⁻²³× 55.845 g

1326.6 × 10⁻²³g
