A closed container has 5.04 • 1023 atoms of a gas. Each atom of the gas weighs 1.67 • 10-24 grams. Which of the following shows and explains the approximate total mass, in grams, of all the atoms of the gas in the container? (1 point)

8.42 grams, because (5.04 • 1.67) • (1023 • 10-24 ) = 8.4168

6.71 grams, because (5.04 + 1.67) • (1023 • 10-24 ) = 6.71

0.67 grams, because (5.04 + 1.67) • (1023 • 10-24 ) = 6.71 • 10-1

0.84 grams, because (5.04 • 1.67) • (1023 • 10-24 ) = 8.4168 • 10-1
