Arrange the following in the order of increasing mass (atomic mass: O = 16, Cu = 63, N = 14)
I. one atom of oxygen
II. one atom of nitrogen
III. 1 × 10–10 mole of oxygen
IV. 1 × 10–10 mole of copper

(a) II < I < III < IV
Explanation:
Mass of 6.023 × 1023 atoms of oxygen = 16 g
Mass of one atom of oxygen
= 16/6.023 x 1023 = 2.66 x 10-23
Mass of 6.023 × 1023 atoms of nitrogen = 14 g
Mass of one atom of nitrogen
= 14/6.023 x 1023 = 2.32 x 10-23 g
Mass of 1 × 10–10 mole of oxygen = 16 × 10–10
Mass of 1 mole of copper = 63 g
Mass of 1 mole of oxygen = 16 g
Mass of 1 × 10–10 mole of copper = 63 × 1 × 10–10
= 63 × 10–10
So, the order of increasing mass is II < I < III < IV.
