Mass of 1 molecule of O2 is:

Correct answer: B. (32 / 6.02 x 10^23) g

  • A. (6.02 x 10^23 g / 32)
  • B. (32 / 6.02 x 10^23) g
  • C. 32 g
  • D. 0.32 g

Explanation

The mass of 1 mole of oxygen gas (O2) is 16+16 = 32g/mol.1 mole of oxygen gas contains 6.02x1023 molecules. So, to find out the mass of one molecule of O2, we need to divide 32g by 6.02x1023. Hence, B is the correct option.
