Chemistry · Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: The SI base unit of amount of substance is mole, which contains exactly \( 6.02214076 \times 10^{23} \) elementary entities. Statement II: The prefix 'micro' corresponds to a multiple of \( 10^{-9} \) and is represented by the symbol \( \mu \). In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 3
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation
Statement I is correct. Statement II is incorrect because 'micro' corresponds to \( 10^{-6} \), whereas \( 10^{-9} \) corresponds to 'nano'.
