Answer:

194.36 g

Solution:

Data Given:

Number of Atoms = 6.0 × 10²³

A.Mass of Platinum = 195.08 g.mol⁻¹

Step 1: Calculate Moles of Platinum,

Moles = Number of Atoms ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Atoms.mol⁻¹

Putting value,

Moles = 6.0 × 10²³ Atoms ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Atoms.mol⁻¹

Moles = 0.9963 mol

Step 2: Calculate Mass of Platinum:

Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass

Solving for Mass,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Putting values,

Mass = 0.9963 mol × 195.08 g.mol⁻¹

Mass = 194.36 g
