Which of the following samples contains the greatest number of atoms? a. 9 mole of CO2b. 10 moles of Xe
c. 11 moles of N2Od. 12 moles of CO

12 moles of CO

Explanation:

According to Avogadro, one mole of a substance, contains the same number of elementary entities as 12g of carbon-12. Now the number of elementary entities (atoms, molecules, ions, particles etc) in any substance is given by the Avogadro's constant.

Now since 1 mole of a substance contains Avogadro's number of atoms, it means that the substance with the highest number of moles will have the highest number of atoms.

With this in mind we can see that 12 moles of CO is expected to contain 72.24 ×10^23 atoms of CO. Hence the answer.

false

because it does not have the potential to be entirely used up
