    Calculate the number of iron atoms in a piece of iron weighing 2.8 g.(Atomic mass of iron\[=56\])

    A)  \[30.11\times {{10}^{23}}\]atoms

    B)  \[3.11\times {{10}^{23}}\]atoms

    C)  \[3.0115\times {{10}^{22}}\]atoms  

    D)  \[301.1\times {{10}^{23}}\]atoms

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[1\] mole of iron \[=\] gram atomic mass of iron\[=56\] grams We know that \[1\] mole of iron element contains \[6.023\times {{10}^{23}}\] atoms of iron. \[56\,\,g\] of iron contains \[=6.023\times {{10}^{23}}\] atoms\[2.8\,\,g\] of iron contains \[=\frac{6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{56}\times 28=\frac{6.023\times {{10}^{22}}}{2}\]\[=3.0115\times {{10}^{22}}\]atoms
