Solution

The correct option is D

6.02 X 1023


Molecular weight of NH3 = Weight of 1 Nitrogen atom + 3× Weight of Hydrogen atom

= 14 + 3 × 1 = 17

17 grams of NH3 = 1 mole

4.25 grams of NH3 = Mass of substanceMolecular mass of substance = 4.2517 = 0.25 mole of NH3

No of molecules present in 1 mole of NH3 = 6.023 × 1023

No of molecules present in 0.25 mole of NH3 = 6.023 × 1023 ×0.25

= 1.505 × 1023

1 mole of NH3 = 4 atoms

6.023 × 1023 ×0.25 molecules of NH3 = 0.25 × 4 × 6.023 × 1023 atoms

= 6.023 × 1023 atoms
