How many helium atoms are present in 52u of helium?
How many helium atoms are present in 52u of helium? Correct Answer 78.3 × 10<sup>23</sup>
The correct answer is 13.
Concept:
Atomic Number: It is the number of protons or electrons present in the atom.
Mass number:
- It is the number of protons and neutrons taken together of an atom.
- It is measured in the atomic mass unit, amu or simply 'u'.
An element is represented in the following manner:

Explanation:
Mass of 1 He atom = 4 u
4u He has atoms = 1
1u He will have atoms = 1/4
52u He will have atoms = 52/4 = 13
The Number of atoms in 13 moles = 13× 6.022×1023 = 7.8286 × 1024.
Therefore 52 u of He has 7.8286 × 1024 = 78.286 × 1023 atoms.
