If  we  consider  that  1/6,  in  place  of  1/12,  mass  of carbon  atom  is  taken  to  be  the  relative  atomic  mass unit, the mass of one mole of a substance will

A.be  a  function  of  the  molecular  mass  of  the
B.remain unchanged
C.increase two-fold✓ Correct
D.decrease twice
Explanation

In case of  1 12  , 1 1 23 1 1 a.m.u ( )= Mass of 1 C-12 atom 12 1 12 (1) 12 6.022 10 x >> x x In case of  1 , 6 2 2 23 1 1 a.m.u ( )= Mass of 1 C-12 atom 6 1 12 (2) 6 6.022 10 x >> x x From (1) and (2), we have 23 1 2 23 1 2 2 1 1 6.022 10 2 6.022 10 1 2 2 x x >> >> Thus, the new mass increases by two fold.
