Chemistry Question on Structure of atom
Number of oxalic acid molecules in 100mL of 0.02N oxalic acid are
A
6.023×1020
B
6.023×1021
C
6.023×1022
D
6.023×1023
Answer
6.023×1020
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is Option A) 6.023×1020
To solve this problem first the molarity needs to be determined by the formula: Molarity=Valency factor/Normality
Here, the Valency factor is 0.02 and the Normality is 2
Therefore, Molarity = 0.02/2 = 0.01M
Now, there's Avogadro number of molecules present in one molar solution = 6.023 × 1023
So, the number of oxalic acid molecules in 100 mL of 0.02 N oxalic acid solution will be
(0.01×6.023×1023×100) / 1000 =6.023×1020.
