Answer:Total atoms in 131.97 liters of water vapor at STP are
1.0643* 10^(25) atoms.

Step-by-step explanation:

At STP, one mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Then 131.97 L of the volume will be occupied by:


(1)/(22.4 L)* 131.97 L=5.8915 moles

Number of water vapor molecules :


Moles* N_A=5.8915 mol* 6.022* 10^(23) mol^(-1)=3.5478* 10^(24) molecules

In 1 molecule of water vapor = 3 atoms

Total number of atoms in
3.5478* 10^(24) molecules:


3* 3.5478* 10^(24) molecules=1.0643* 10^(25) atoms

Total atoms in 131.97 liters of water vapor at STP are
1.0643* 10^(25) atoms.
