Plz answer thx How many moles are in 2.5 x 10^18 grams of water?

alex41 [277]

Answer:

$1.39\times 10^{17}$ moles of water in $2.5\times 10^{18} g$ of water.

Explanation:

Mass of water = $m = 2.5\times 10^{18} g$

Molar mass of water = M = 18 g/mol

Moles = n = $\frac{m}{M}$

$n=\frac{2.5\times 10^{18} g}{18 g/mol}=1.39\times 10^{17} moles$

So, there are $1.39\times 10^{17}$ moles of water in $2.5\times 10^{18} g$ of water.
