(Avogadro Number = $6 \times 10^{23}$)

  1. $\displaystyle \left( \frac{9}{4 \pi} \times 10^{-23} \right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}$
  2. $\displaystyle \left( \frac{8 \pi}{3} \times 10^{-23} \right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}$
  3. $\displaystyle \left( \frac{3}{8 \pi} \times 10^{-23} \right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}$
  4. none of these

C Correct answer
Explanation

Critical volume of gas=3b [for 1 molecule]

For 1 mole, critical volume=0.036 liters
$\Longrightarrow 0.036\times { 10 }^{ 3 }{ cm }^{ 3 }=3\left( \cfrac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 } \right) \times { N } _{ A } \ \Longrightarrow r={ \left( \cfrac { 36 }{ 24\pi  } \times 10^{ -23 } \right)  }^{ \cfrac { 1 }{ 3 }  }={ \left( \cfrac { 3 }{ 8\pi  } \times 10^{ -23 } \right)  }^{ \cfrac { 1 }{ 3 }  }$

  1. $1.4\times 10^{-21}$ g
  2. $1.09\times 10^{-21}$ g
  3. $5.025\times 10^{23}$ g
  4. $16.023\times 10^{23}$ g
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Molecular mass of $C _{60}H _{122}=(60 \times 12+1 \times 122)=720+122=842$


Hence, one mole contains $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ molecules 


Therefore, 

Mass of one molecule $=\frac{842}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}$

$=1.4 \times 10^{-21}\;g$


The correct option is A.

If you are given Avogadro's number of atoms of a gas $X$. If half of the atoms are converted into $X _{(g)}^+$ by energy $\Delta H$. The IE of $X$ is :

  1. $\dfrac{2\Delta H}{N _A}$
  2. $\dfrac{2N _A}{\Delta H}$
  3. $\dfrac{\Delta H}{2N _A}$
  4. $\dfrac{N _A}{\Delta H}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Given no. of atoms = Avogadro's no. of atoms = ${N} _{A} = 6.023 \times {10}^{23}$
Given that $\cfrac{{N} _{A}}{2}$ atoms are ionized, i.e.,
Ionization energy of $\cfrac{{N} _{A}}{2}$ atoms of gas X = $\Delta{H}$

$\therefore$ Ionization energy of 1 atom of gas X = $\cfrac{\Delta{H}}{\left( \cfrac{{N} _{A}}{2} \right)} = \cfrac{2. \Delta{H}}{{N} _{A}}$
Hence, Ionisation energy of gas X is $\cfrac{2. \Delta{H}}{{N} _{A}}$.

The number of atoms in 67.2 L of ${ NH } _{ 3 }$(g) at STP is:

  1. 9 ${N } _{ A }$
  2. 12 ${N } _{ A }$
  3. 3 ${N } _{ A }$
  4. 4 ${N } _{ A }$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
By Avogadro law,
 22.4 liter of any gas at STP$ = $1mole
                $ =6.022\times { 1 }0^{ 23 }$ molecules of gas
                $ =$NA (Avogadro number)

So, in 67.2 L of ${ NH } _{ 3 }=?$
    22.4 L of $ { NH } _{ 3 }=N _A$
     1 L of ${ NH } _{ 3 }=\cfrac { NA }{ 22.4 } $

67.2 L of $ { NH } _{ 3 }=\cfrac { 67.2 }{ 22.4 } \times NA$
                          $ =3N _A$ molecules

Now, each molecule contain 4 atoma
Number of atoms $= 4\times 3N _A = 12N _A$ atoms

B Correct answer
Explanation
Avogadro's law: It states that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules.

$\\ n _{1} : n _{2} : n _{3} : n _{4} = \cfrac{PV}{RT} : \cfrac{PV}{RT} : \cfrac{PV}{RT} : \cfrac{PV}{RT} = 1 : 1 : 1 : 1 $

So, the ratio of no. of molecules $= 1: 1: 1: 1$

The correct option is $B.$

A sample of municipal water contains one part of urea (molecular wt $=60$) per million parts of water by weight. The number of urea molecules in a drop of water of volume $0.05\ ml$ is 

  1. $2.5\times 10^{14}$
  2. $5\times 10^{14}$
  3. $5\times 10^{13}$
  4. $5\times 10^{15}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$1 \ ppm = 1 \ mg/L = 10^{-3} g/L$

Water sample contains $1 \ ppm$ urea concentration.

$\therefore \ 10^{-3} \ g$ of urea in $ 1 \ L$

$x \ g$ urea in $0.05 \times 10^{-3} \ L$

$x= 0.05 \times 10^{-6} \ g$

$60 \ g$ urea $=6.023 \times 10^{23} \ molecules$

$0.05 \times 10^{-6} \ g = n \ molecules$

$n = \cfrac {6.023 \times 10^{23} \times 0.05 \times 10^{-6}}{60}$

$=0.005 \times 10^{17}$

$=5 \times 10^{14} \ molecules$

According to Avogadro's law the volume of a gas will ____ as _____ if ____ are held constant.

  1. increases, number of moles; P & T

  2. decreases, number of moles; P & T

  3. increases; T & P; number of moles

  4. decreases; P & T; number of moles

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

According to Avogadro's law: Equal volume of all gases at same temperature and pressure will have same no. of molecules.

OR
For a given mass of ideal gas,
Volume$\propto$Number of moles of the gas (if temperature and pressure are constant) 
So, volume of the gas will increase as the number of moles if pressure (P) and temperature (T) are held constant.
