which element contains the greatest number of atoms?
4g he 46g na 0.40 ca 12g he
why?justify your answer?
4g of He contain: 6.022*1023 * 4/2
= 12.044*1023 atoms
46g of Na contain: 6.022*1023 * 46/23
= 12.044*1023 atoms
0.40g of Ca contain: 6.022*1023 * 0.4/40
= 6.022*1021 atoms
12g of He contain: 6.022*1023 * 12/2
= 36.13*1023 atoms
Therefore 12g of He contains the largest number of atoms.
