What is the number of oxygen atoms present in 126 g of HNO3?
Options:
A .  
36.132×1023
B .  
9.033×1023
C .  
120.44×1023
D .  
16.132×1023
Answer: Option A : A Molecular mass of HNO3 = atomic mass of hydrogen + atomic mass of nitrogen + 3× atomic mass of oxygen = 1 + 14 + (3 × 16) = 63 u.
Number of moles = GivenmassGrammolecularmass Moles of HNO3 = 12663 = 2 moles
∙ In 1 molecule of HNO3 we have 3 atoms of oxygen. ∙ 1 mole of HNO3 contains 3 moles of oxygen atoms. So, in 2 moles of HNO3 we will have 6 moles of oxygen atoms. ∙ One mole of a substance contains 6.022×1023 particles. So, the number of atoms in 126 g of HNO3= 6×6.022×1023 = 36.132×1023 atoms.
