Question 22 • Chemistry

The mass and volume of each sample differ from the mass and volume of the other samples. Is it possible for each sample to contain 1 mol of each substance?

Answer
A
No, because they have different volumes.
B
No, because they have different masses.
C
Yes, if each sample contains 6 point 0 2 times 10 to the 23th power atoms.
D
Yes, if each sample contains 2 amu .

Explanation

One mole of a substance contains about 6.02 × 10²³ particles. Different substances can have different masses and volumes for that same number of particles because their particles differ in mass and may take up different amounts of space. So each sample can contain 1 mol even if their masses and volumes differ; the matching choice is 6.02 × 10²³ atoms.
