ANSWER:

Solution 27E

Step 1 of  2:

How many moles are in a 1.00-kg bottle of water?

The molar mass M of a compound is the mass of 1 mole. It is equal to the mass m of a single molecule multiplied by Avogadro’s number,

  • Molar mass of water, M= 18 g/ mol

Which means 18g of water is equal to 1 mole

  • Mass of water, m= 1kg = 1000 g

Therefore 1000 g of water is equal to moles

That is, number of moles are in 1 kg(1000 g) of water is , = 55.55 moles
