    The density of gold is \[19\ g/c{{m}^{3}}\]. If \[1.9\times {{10}^{-4}}g\]of gold is dispersed in one litre of water to give a sol having spherical gold particles of radius 10 nm, then the number of gold particles per \[m{{m}^{3}}\] of the sol will be      [Pb.CET 2004]

    A)            \[1.9\times {{10}^{12}}\]

    B)            \[6.3\times {{10}^{14}}\]

    C)            \[6.3\times {{10}^{10}}\]

    D)            \[2.4\times {{10}^{6}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               Volume of the gold dispersed in one litre water \[=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}\] \[=\frac{1.9\times {{10}^{-4}}\,gm}{19\ gm\ c{{m}^{-3}}}\] \[=1\times {{10}^{-5}}c{{m}^{-3}}\]                    Radius of gold sol particle \[=10\ nm\] \[=10\times {{10}^{-9}}m\] \[=10\times {{10}^{-7}}cm\ ={{10}^{-6}}cm\]                    Volume of the gold sol particle \[=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\] \[=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{22}{7}\times {{({{10}^{-6}})}^{3}}\]  \[=4.19\times {{10}^{-18}}c{{m}^{3}}\]                    No. of gold sol particle in \[1\times {{10}^{-5}}c{{m}^{3}}\]\[=\frac{1\times {{10}^{-5}}}{4.19\times {{10}^{-18}}}\]                    \[=2.38\times {{10}^{12}}\]                    No. of gold sol particle in one \[m{{m}^{3}}\] \[=\frac{2.38\times {{10}^{12}}}{{{10}^{6}}}=2.38\times {{10}^{6}}\]
