Detailed Solution

Avogadro number represents the number of atoms present in 1 mole of an atom. It is also known as the number of molecules present in 1 mole of a substance.

A material's mole is its mass when it has exactly the same number of basic units as that substance, such as 12.0 g of C. The number of atoms in 12.0 g of carbon, or the number of atoms in 1 mole of atom, is known as Avogadro's number. Similar to this, Avogadro's number indicates the quantity of molecules in 1 mole of a material.
Eg. NH3 has a molecular weight of 17 g/mol.
Therefore, Avogadro's number of NH3 molecules are present in 1 mole of NH3, or 17g of NH3.
Using the charge of 1 mole of electrons and the charge of 1 electron, Avogadro's number is calculated.
1 mole of electrons has a charge of 96485.3383 Coulombs.

Charge of 1 electron =1.60217653×10-19 Coulombs
Avogadro's number = Charge of 1 mol electron  Charge of 1 electron 
Avogadro's number =96485.33831.60217653×10-19
Avogadro's number =6.023×10-19

Avogadro's number =6.023×1023

Hence option C is correct.
