Detailed Solution

Molar mass of O3 = 48

Given 16 g O3 . So no. of moles of O3 = 16/48 = ⅓

1 mole = 3 ×NA oxygen atoms

So 1/3 mole = NA×3×1/3 no of atoms

= NA oxygen atoms

Molar mass of CO = 28

Given 28 g CO. So no of moles = 28/28 = 1

No. of atoms = 1×NA = NA

Molar mass of O2 = 32

Given 32g O2

No. of moles = 32/32 = 1

No.of atoms = 2×NA = 2NA

So the ratio is 1:1:2
