The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is incorrect among the provided options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Statement A:** - Statement: "1 gram atom of carbon-12 contains Avogadro number of atoms." - Explanation: 1 gram atom of carbon-12 is equivalent to 1 mole of carbon-12. According to Avogadro's Law, 1 mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.), which is approximately \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\). Therefore, this statement is **correct**. 2. **Analyze Statement B:** - Statement: "1 mole of oxygen gas contains Avogadro's number of molecules." - Explanation: 1 mole of oxygen gas (O₂) indeed contains Avogadro's number of molecules. Since O₂ is a diatomic molecule, 1 mole of O₂ will have \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\) O₂ molecules. Thus, this statement is **correct**. 3. **Analyze Statement C:** - Statement: "1 mole hydrogen gas contains Avogadro's number of atoms." - Explanation: 1 mole of hydrogen gas (H₂) contains Avogadro's number of molecules, not atoms. Each H₂ molecule consists of 2 hydrogen atoms. Therefore, 1 mole of H₂ contains \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\) molecules of H₂, which corresponds to \(2 \times 6.02 \times 10^{23}\) hydrogen atoms. Thus, this statement is **incorrect**. 4. **Analyze Statement D:** - Statement: "1 mole of electrons stands for \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\) electrons." - Explanation: This statement is correct as well. 1 mole of any elementary charge, including electrons, contains Avogadro's number of particles, which is \(6.02 \times 10^{23}\). Therefore, this statement is **correct**. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement is **C**: "1 mole hydrogen gas contains Avogadro's number of atoms." ---
