Verified Answer :

Atomic mass Ar => 39.948 a.m.u

39.948 g --------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
?? g -------------------- 3.8x10²⁴ atoms

(3.8x10²⁴) x 39.948 / 6.02x10²³ => 250 g

hope this helps!

Answer : The mass of argon will be, 250 grams

Explanation : Given,

Number of atoms of argon = \(3.8\times 10^{24}\)

As we know that, 1 mole of substance contains \(6.022\times 10^{23}\) number of atoms.

First we have to calculate the moles of argon.

As, \(6.022\times 10^{23}\) number of argon atoms present in 1 mole of argon

So, \(3.8\times 10^{24}\) number of argon atoms present in \(\frac{3.8\times 10^{24}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=6.31\) mole of argon

The moles of argon = 6.31 mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of argon.

\(\text{Mass of }Ar=\text{Moles of }Ar\times \text{Molar mass of }Ar\)

\(\text{Mass of }Ar=(6.31mole)\times (40g/mole)=252.4g\)

The mass of argon = 252.4 grams that is approximately equal to 250 grams.

Therefore, the mass of argon will be, 250 grams.
