Chemistry Question on Mole concept and Molar Masses
The total number of protons in 10g of calcium carbonate is (N0=6.023×1023) :
A
3.01×1024
B
4.06×1024
C
2.01×1024
D
3.02×1024
Answer
3.01×1024
Explanation
Solution
We know that protons in 1 mole CaCO3
=atomic number of calcium+atomic number of carbon+3(atomic number of oxygen)
= 20+6+3(8)=50
10 g CaCO3 contain
=10050×10 moles of protons
Count of Protons = 5×6.02×1023
= 3.01×1024
Therefore, the correct option is (A): 3.01×1024
