Chlorophyll, the green colouring matter of plants responsible for photosynthesis, contains `2.68%` of magnesium by mass. Calculate the number of magnesium atoms in `2.00 g` of chlorophyll.

Answer» `:. 100 g` chlorophyll contains `2.68 g Mg`
`=(2.68)/(64) "mole" Mg`
`2 g` chlorophyll contains `(2.68xx2)/(24xx100)`
`=2.2xx10^(-3) "mole"Mg`
`:.` No. of `Mg "atoms" = 2.2xx10^(-3)xx6.023xx10^(23)`
`=1.345xx10^(21)` atoms of `Mg`
