A mole of oxygen O2 and a mole of phosphorus P4 do not contain the same number of molecules.
Question
A mole of oxygen O2 and a mole of phosphorus P4 do not contain the same number of molecules.
Solution
The statement is incorrect. According to Avogadro's Law, one mole of any substance contains the same number of entities (atoms, molecules, ions etc.), which is approximately 6.022 x 10^23. Therefore, one mole of oxygen (O2) and one mole of phosphorus (P4) both contain the same number of molecules, which is Avogadro's number.
