If we consider that 1/6, in place of 1/12, mass of carbon atom is taken to be the relative atomic mass unit, the mass of one mole of the substance will

Multiple Choice Options

  • A be a function of the molecular mass of the substance
  • B increase two fold
  • C remain unchanged
  • D decrease twice

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

The mass of 1 mole of a substance does not depend on the atomic mass unit (amu) scale, so the mass of one mole of a substance will not change. When we say 'mass,' we are not referring to the magnitude of the value in a particular unit; rather, we are referring to the final value itself. There will be no change in any constant; only the magnitudes will be halved in amu units. In any other unit, the value will remain the same.
