3.01xx10^223.01×1022 molecules.

Explanation:

The mass of one mole of water is "18 g"18 g. Therefore, "0.9 g"0.9 g of water is

"0.9 g"/"18 g/mol" = "0.05 moles"0.9 g18 g/mol=0.05 moles

of water. One mole of water contains Avagadro's constant, ie, 6.022 xx 10^236.022×1023 molecules of water, therefore, 0.050.05 moles of water contain

"0.05 mol" xx (6.022^23"molec.")/("1 mol") = 3.01xx10^220.05 mol×6.02223molec.1 mol=3.01×1022 "molecules"molecules

We find the molar quantity.....and get "number of water molecules"number of water molecules =3.01xx10^22=3.01×1022...

Explanation:

"Moles of water"=(0.9*g)/(18.01*g*mol^-1)=0.050*molMoles of water=0.9g18.01gmol1=0.050mol

And we know that there are 6.022xx10^236.022×1023 molecules in one mole of any substance.....

And so we take the product......

0.050*molxx6.022xx10^23*mol^-1=3.01xx10^220.050mol×6.022×1023mol1=3.01×1022 "water molecules"water molecules. (And thus the product gives a dimensionless number as required....)

(i) how many oxygen atoms in this molar quantity; and (ii) how many hydrogen atoms......?

30.130.1 x 10^21 mlcs1021mlcs

Explanation:

Mass of water(H_2O)Massofwater(H2O) = 0.9grams=0.9grams

Molar mass of (H_2O)Molarmassof(H2O) = 1.008=1.008 x 22 + 166
= 18.016gmol^-=18.016gmol

** Number of molecules ** = Mass in grams//Molar mass x N_ANA

= 0.9/18.016=0.918.016 x 6.026.02 x 10^231023

= 30.1=30.1 x 10^21 1021 mlcs mlcs
