Open in App
Solution

Calculation for the number of atoms:
Aluminium:
Atomic mass = 27 g/mol
27g of aluminium contains = 6.022 × 1023 atoms
So, 50g of aluminium will contain = 6.022×102327×50 = 1.11 × 1024 atoms

Iron
Atomic mass = 56 g/ mol
56​g of iron contains = 6.022 × 1023 atoms
So, 50g of iron will contain = 6.022×102356×50 = 5.37×1023 atoms

Hence, 50g of aluminium contains more number of atoms than 50g of iron.
