Best Answer

Atomic Mass of carbon: 12.0 grams

12.01 grams C × (6.02 × 1023 atoms) / (12.0 grams) = 6.03 × 1023 atoms of Carbon

Note that one mole of any substance is Avogadro's constant (6.02 × 1023) and that one mole of Carbon is 12.0 grams. So if you have 12.01 grams of carbon (roughly one mole) you should get about Avogadro's constant.

There is only one carbon atom in each carbon atom. Carbon atoms that have a mass number of 12amu are called carbon-12 atoms. Twelve grams of carbon-12 atoms is 1 mole of carbon-12 atoms. There are 6.022 x 1023 atoms of carbon-12 in 12 grams of carbon-12.

There are the same number of atoms present in one mole of any substance. This is called Avagadro's number,which is 6.02x10 to the power of 23 (also written as 6.02x10^23).

If 1 mol of carbon has 6.02*10 exp 23 atoms and it weights exactly 12 gr.

1 single atom should weight 12 gr/ 6.02 * 10 exp 23 = 1,99*10 exp -23 grams

12 grams of carbon is close enough to 1 mole of carbon to have 6.022 X 10^23 atoms in it. This number, 6.022 X 10^23, is called Avogadro's number and is a mole of anything.

There is 1.000 gram-mole of Carbon-12 in 12.00 grams of Carbon-12. There are 6.022x10^23 atoms in one gram-mole of a substance. So, there are 6.022x10^23 atoms in 12.00 g of Carbon-12.
