What is the number of molecules in 2.125 g of ammonia?

  • A
    $6.022 \times 10^{23}$
  • B
    $3.011 \times 10^{23}$
  • C
    $1.505 \times 10^{22}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $7.527 \times 10^{22}$

Solution

Molar mass of ammonia ($NH_3$) = $14 + 3 = 17 \text{ g/mol}$

Number of moles of ammonia = $\dfrac{2.125}{17} = 0.125 \text{ mol}$

Number of molecules = $0.125 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} = 7.527 \times 10^{22}$

Answer: $7.527 \times 10^{22}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
