Answer:

Mass = 4.5 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of iron = 4.85 ×10²² atoms

Mass of iron = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

4.85 × 10²² atoms of iron / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms × 1 mol

0.081 mol

Mass of iron:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.081 mol × 55.85 g/mol

Mass = 4.5 g
