Solution

The correct option is A True

Mole concept

  • The mole concept is defined as a convenient method to express the number of substances.
  • The elementary entities that can be represented in moles can be atoms, molecules, monoatomic or polyatomic ions, and other particles
  • The number of moles of a substance can be calculated as

n=NNa(N=No.ofelementaryentity,NA=Avagadronumber)

  • Therefore, the number of particles can be calculated as

N=nXNAXAtomicity

  • In 1 mole of triatomic gas, N: (atomicity=3)(no. of moles=1)

N=1x6.022x1023x3=18.066x1023

  • In 3 mole of monoatomic gas, N: (atomocity=1)(no. of moles=3)

N=3x6.022x1023x1=18.066x1023

Hence, the given statement is True i.e., One mole of triatomic gas and three moles of a monoatomic gas contain the same number of atoms.
