Problem 27E
How many moles are in a 1.00-kg bottle of water? How many molecules? The molar mass of water is 18.0 g/mol.
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
