Answer: There are
21.08* 10^(23) molecules in 63.00 g of
H_2O

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.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:


\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=(63.00g)/(18g/mol)=3.5moles

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

Thus 3.5 moles of
H_2O contains =
(6.023* 10^(23))/(1)* 3.5=21.08* 10^(23) molecules.

There are
21.08* 10^(23) molecules in 63.00 g of
H_2O
