Question

State whether the following statements are true or false (with justification). (a) 1 mol of N2 has more molecules than 1 mol of Ar. (b) 1 mol of N2 has more mass than than 1 mol of Ar. (c) The molar mass of N2 is greater than the molar mass of Ar

Answer 1

Answer:

A. False.

Every substance contains the same number of molecules i.e 6.02x10^23 molecules

B. False.

Mass conc. = number mole x molar Mass

Mass conc. of 1mole of N2 = 1 x 28 = 28g

Mass conc. of 1mol of Ar = 1 x 40 = 40g

The mass of 1mole of Ar is greater than the mass of 1mole of N2

C. False.

Molar Mass of N2 = 2x14 = 28g/mol

Molar Mass of Ar = 40g/mol

The molar mass of Ar is greater than that of N2.
