Given below are two statements: Statement-I : Both 12 g of carbon and 27 g of Aluminium will have (6.02 10²³ ) atoms. Statement-II : Gram atomic mass of an element contains Avogadro's no. of atoms. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. AStatement-I and II both are correct.
  2. BStatement-I is correct while II is incorrect.
  3. CBoth Statement-I and II are incorrect.
  4. DStatement-I is incorrect and II is correct.

Correct answer

A. Statement-I and II both are correct.

Step-by-step solution

Thus, Statement-I is correct because both 12 g of carbon and 27 g of aluminum correspond to 1 mole of atoms, and 1 mole contains (6.022 10²³ ) atoms. Statement-II: "Gram atomic mass of an element contains Avogadro's number of atoms." - The gram atomic mass (or molar mass) of an element is the mass of 1 mole of its atoms in grams, and by definition, 1 mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number ( (6.022 10²³ )) of atoms. Thus, Statement-II is correct. Conclusion: Both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct.
