Answer:

78.3 × 10²³ atoms of helium are present in 52 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of He = 52 g

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles of He

Number of moles = mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 52 g/ 4 g/mol

Number of moles = 13 mol

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,

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of helium

13 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of helium / 1 mole

78.3 × 10²³ atoms of helium
