Answer:
0.301* 10^(23) molecules of water


0.6023* 10^(23) atoms of hydrogen


0.301* 10^(23) atoms of oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number
6.023* 10^(23) of particles.

1 mole of water
(H_2O) contains =
6.023* 10^(23) molecules of water

Thus 0.05 moles of water
(H_2O) contain =
(6.023* 10^(23))/(1)* 0.05=0.301* 10^(23) molecules of water

Now , 1 molecule of water contains= 2 atoms of hydrogen


0.301* 10^(23) molecules of water contain =
(2)/(1)* 0.301* 10^(23)=0.6023* 10^(23) atoms of hydrogen

Now , 1 molecule of water contains = 1 atom of oxygen


0.301* 10^(23) molecules of water contain =
(1)/(1)* 0.301* 10^(23)=0.301* 10^(23) atoms of oxygen
