Question

Avogadro constant is 6.02 1023 (the number of atoms or molecules per mole). What how much charge is there in 1 mole of electrons? How much charge is there in 1 mole of hydrogen ions (H+). Remember that hydrogen consists of one electron and one proton, so hydrogen ions are just protons.

Answer 1

Answer:

Charge of 1 mole of electrons = -96488.46 C

Charge of 1 mole of protons/ hydrogen ions = +96488.46 C

Explanation:

Given, Avogadro constant:-

$N_a=6.023\times 10^{23}$

Thus, charge on 1 mole of electron can be calculated as:-

Charge on 1 electron = $-1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Charge on $6.023\times 10^{23}$ electrons = $-1.602\times 10^{-19}\times 6.023\times 10^{23}\ C$ = -96488.46 C

Charge of 1 mole of electrons = -96488.46 C

Charge of electron = Charge on proton (magnitude), Only the charge is different. Electron has negative charge and protons have positive charge.

Charge of 1 mole of protons/ hydrogen ions = +96488.46 C
