Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of moles
\(\begin{aligned}
& =\frac{\text { Mass of a substance }}{\text { Molar mass of the substance }} \\
& =\frac{6.9 \times 10^{-2} \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}}{23 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}}=3 \mathrm{moles}
\end{aligned}\)
