3.37 x 10¹⁰ molecules
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Volume of water = 1pL = 1 x 10⁻¹²L
Density of water = 1.00g/mL = 1000g/L
Unknown:
Number of water molecules = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we first find the mass of the water molecule in the inkjet.
Mass of water = density of water x volume of water
Then, the number of molecules can be determined using the expression below:
number of moles =
Number of molecules = number of moles x 6.02 x 10²³
Solving:
Mass of water = 1 x 10⁻¹² x 1000 = 1 x 10⁻⁹g
Number of moles:
Molar mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol
Number of moles = = 5.6 x 10⁻¹⁴moles
Number of molecules = 5.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ x 6.02 x 10²³ = 33.7 x 10⁹
= 3.37 x 10¹⁰ molecules
