Solution

18g of CH4

`("Mass substance" xx ("Number of atoms in the molecule") xx "N"_"A")/"Molar mass"`

18 g of O2 = 1 mole = 1 × 6.022 × 1023

= 3 × 6.022 × 1023 atoms = 1.8066 × 1024 atoms

18 g of O2  = `(18 xx 2)/32 xx 6.022 xx 10^23`

= 6.77 × 1023 atoms

18 g of CO2  = `(18 xx 3)/44 xx 6.022 xx 10^23`

= 7.39 × 1023 atoms

18 g of CH4 = `(18 xx 5)/16 xx 6.022 xx 10^23`

= 3.38 × 1024 atoms
