Answer: 3.01 x 10^24 atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on Avogadro's law:

1 mole of any substance has 6.02 x 10^23 atoms

So, 1 mole of water = 6.02 x 10^23 atoms

5 moles of water = Z atoms

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

Z x 1 mole = (6.02 x 10^23 atoms x 5 moles)

Z•mole = 30.1 x 10^23 atoms•mole

Divide both sides by 1 mole

Z•mole/1 mole = 30.1 x 10^23 atoms•mole/ 1 mole

Z = 30.1 x 10^23 atoms

[Place the value of Z in standard form]

Z = 3.01 x 10^24 atoms

Thus, there are 3.01 x 10^24 atoms in 5 mole of water
