Question

How many moles of water are 2.41x10^24 molecules of water?

Answer 1

4 moles of water

Step-by-step explanation:

• We need to know that 1 mole of a compound contains molecules equivalent to the Avogadro's constant.
• That is; 1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules
• Therefore, 1 mole of water contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

We are given;

Molecules of water as 2.41x10^24 molecules

To get the number of moles we divide the number of molecules with the Avogadro's constant.

Number of moles of water = (2.41x10^24 molecules)÷(6.022×10^23)

= 4 moles

Therefore, 2.41x10^24 molecules of water are equal to 4 moles of water.
