Explanation:

There are many kinds of prefixes which are used in the metric system. The most common prefixes that are used are :- mega, centi, milli, nano, kilo, fermi, pico, etc.

<em><u>These are used to designate a subdivision or a multiple of the unit in order to deal with very small numbers or very large numbers . All of these prefixes designate the power of 10. </u></em>

<em><u>For example, kilo represents 1000 of the unit.</u></em>

Which of the following has the greatest mass, in grams? 1 atom of lead (Pb) 0.5 mol silver (Ag) atoms 0.3 mol gold (Au) atoms 25
Strike441 [17]

Answer : Option C) 0.3 mol of Gold.

Explanation : Amongst the options given in the question, 0.3 mol of Au is the greatest in mass in grams.

As 0.3 mol X atomic weight of Au (196.966) = 59.088 grams;

Silver has 0.5 mol X atomic weight of Ag (107.86) = 53.93 grams;

The other options are not relevant as they deal in the atomic range which has mass value very less as compared to the moles of elements.

Therefore, it is clear that Au has the greatest mass amongst the given choices.
