(N/A) We know that the gram atomic mass of carbon is $12 \text{ g}$.
Further,the mass of $1$ carbon atom is calculated as:
$\text{Mass of 1 atom} = \frac{\text{Gram atomic mass}}{\text{Avogadro's number}} = \frac{12 \text{ g}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}$
$= 1.99 \times 10^{-23} \text{ g}$
Therefore,the mass of $10$ carbon atoms is:
$= 10 \times 1.99 \times 10^{-23} \text{ g}$
$= 1.99 \times 10^{-22} \text{ g}$
