22. How many atoms are there in 344.75 g of gold nugget? a. 1.05 x 10 to the power of 24 atoms b. 1.05 x 10 to the power of 23 atoms c. 6.02 x 10 to the power of 23 atoms d. 197 atoms Is B the answer

1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold

Explanation:

Hello,

Gold nugget are usually the natural occurring gold and they contain 85% - 90% weight of pure gold.

In this question, we're required to find the number of atoms in 344.75g of a gold nugget.

We can use mole concept relationship between Avogadro's number and molar mass.

1 mole = molar mass

Molar mass of gold = 197 g/mol

1 mole = Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

Number of mole = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of mole × molar mass

Mass = 1 × 197

Mass = 197g

197g is present in 6.022×10²³ atoms

344.75g will contain x atoms

x = (344.75 × 6.022×10²³) / 197

X = 1.053×10²⁴ atoms

Therefore 344.75g of gold nugget will contain 1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold
