Interpretation:
The quantity that can be obtained by dividing the molar mass of an element by
Concept introduction:
Molar mass of any element is the sum of the masses of all the atoms present in one mole. Molar mass has the units grams/mole. One mole of any element contains Avogadro number of atoms i.e.
Answer to Problem 27SSC
The mass of single atom can be obtained on dividing the molar mass by Avogadro's number.
Explanation of Solution
Molar mass is grams/mole Avogadro's number is atoms/mole.
On dividing molar mass of an element by the Avogadro’s number,
This gives us the quantity grams/atom. That means the mass of the single atom present in the elements is calculated.
