Answer:

The number of molecules is 1.4140*10^24 molecules

Explanation:

To know the number of molecules, we need to determine how many moles of water we have, water has molar mass of 18.015g/mol

This means that one mole of water molecules has a mass of 18.015g.

42.3g * 1 mole H2O/18.015g

= 2.3480 moles H2O

We are using avogadros number to find the number of molecules of water

2.3480 H2O * 6.022*10^ 23moles/ 1mole of H2O

That's 2.3480 multiplied by 6.022*10^23 divided by 1 mole of H2O

Number of molecules = 1.4140 *10^24 molecules

The number of molecules is [tex]1.4140\times 10^24[/tex] molecules

  • The calculation is as follows:

here we need to find out how many moles of water we have, water has molar mass of 18.015g/mol

Now  

[tex]42.3g \times 1 mole H_2O\div 18.015g[/tex]

= 2.3480 moles [tex]H_2O[/tex]

Here we used avogadros number to find the number of molecules of water

[tex]2.3480 H_2O \times 6.022*10^ 2\ 3moles\div 1mole of H2O[/tex]

[tex]2.3480 \times 6.022\times 10^23 \div 1 mole of H_2O[/tex]

=[tex]1.4140 \times 10^24[/tex] molecules
