Expert Solution
Step 1: Mole concept

 Given mass of nitrobenzene = 7.57 ng

Required no. Of C-atoms in 7.57ng of nitrobenzene = ? 

As 1ng = 10-9 

mass of nitrobenzene=7.57 ng=7.57 × 10-9 g

Molar mass of C6H5NO2 is equal to 

= 6(M.M. of C) + 5(M.M. of H) + 1( M.M. of N) + 2 ( M.M. of O ) 

= 6(12.01) + 5(1.008) + 1(14.01) + 2(16.00)

= 123.11 g/mol.

& 1 mole of C6H5NOContains 6 moles of C.

& 1 mole of any substance contains 6.022×1023 atoms of that substance.
