(N/A) $(a) (i)$ Examples include Carbon $(C)$ and Nitrogen $(N)$.
$(ii)$ Examples include Sodium ($Na$,from Natrium) and Iron ($Fe$,from Ferrum).
$(b)$ Avogadro's constant: The value $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ is defined as Avogadro's constant $(N_A)$. It represents the number of particles (atoms,molecules,or ions) present in one mole of any substance.
Molar mass: The mass of $1$ mole of a substance in grams is called its molar mass.
Relationship: One mole of any species (atoms,molecules,or ions) contains $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ number of particles,and its mass is equal to its relative atomic or molecular mass expressed in grams.
$1$ mole of particles Number of particles = $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ Mass = Molar mass in grams
