Solution

4g of NH3

Explanation:

Molecular mass of O2 = (2 x 16) = 32 g

Molecular mass of NH= 14 + (3 x 1) = 17 g (least weight)

Molecular mass of CO2 = 12 + (2 x 16) = 44 g

 Molecular mass of SO= 32 + (2 x 16) = 64 g

∴ 4 g of NH3 contains = `(6.02 xx 10^23)/17 xx 4`

= 1.41 x 1023

∴ 4 g of NH3 having minimum molecular mass contain maximum molecules.
