Detailed Solution

The given data are:

A6.0 g +2B6.0 x 1023atoms +3C0.036 molAB2C34.8 g

=660mol 1mol

Maximum extent of reaction 0.1mol 0.5mol 0.012mol

The limiting reagent is the atomC. The amount of AB2C3 formed will also be 0.012 mol. Mass of AB2C3 formed is 4.8 g. Hence

(0.012×60+(0.024mol)MR+036×80)g=4.8g

This gives  MB=50gmol1 Thus, atomic mass of B is 50 amu .
