Answer:
mass of one carbon atom = [tex]1.99\times 10^{-23}[/tex] g
Explanation:
1 mole of carbon contains [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms of carbon
therefore mass of [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] atoms of carbon is 12.011 grams. therefore mass of one carbon atom will be[tex]\frac{12.011}{6.023\times 10^{23}}[/tex] g
mass of one carbon atom = [tex]1.99\times 10^{-23}[/tex] g
