Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4.0 \times 10^{18}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(n =\frac{ PV }{ RT }, \frac{3}{2} kT =4 \times 10^{-14}\)

\(N =\frac{ PV }{ RT } \times Na\)

\(=\frac{2 \times 13.6 \times 980 \times 4}{\frac{8}{3} \times 10^{-14}}=3.99 \times 10^{18}\)
