Here One drop of water has the volume 0.0018 mL.
Because the density of water is 1, the mass is 0.0018 g. The molar mass of water (H2O) is 18.0 grams/mol (1.008 + 1.008 + 16.0). This means there is one mole of water in 18.0 grams. One mole is 6.02 x 1023 molecules.
Then you can convert grams to number of atoms:
0.0018 grams / 18.0 grams x (6.02 x 10exp19 molecules)

Density of water = 1.
So 1 = mass/volume, 1 = mass/0.0018, mass = 0.0018g no. of mole = weight/molecular
weight = 0.0018/18.
No of water molecules = No of mole*Avogadros no.
= 0.0018/18*6.023*10exp23 = 6.023*10exp19.
So 1 = mass/volume, 1 = mass/0.0018, mass = 0.0018g no. of mole = weight/molecular
weight = 0.0018/18.
No of water molecules = No of mole*Avogadros no.
= 0.0018/18*6.023*10exp23 = 6.023*10exp19.

1mol of H2O contains 6.023*10^23 molecules.
Here, mol=volume/atomic weight=0.0018/18 (h2o at weight =18) = 0.0001.
0.0001 mol H2O contains 6.023*10^23*0.0001 = 6.023 * 10^19 molecules.
Here, mol=volume/atomic weight=0.0018/18 (h2o at weight =18) = 0.0001.
0.0001 mol H2O contains 6.023*10^23*0.0001 = 6.023 * 10^19 molecules.

Here, d = m/v equal to 0.0018 g so we can write as 18 * 10^-4 g.
Then n = 18 *10^-4/18 = 1 * 10^-4.
One mole = 6.022 * 10^23.
1 * 10^-4 mole = x
And the answer is 6.022 * 10^19.
Then n = 18 *10^-4/18 = 1 * 10^-4.
One mole = 6.022 * 10^23.
1 * 10^-4 mole = x
And the answer is 6.022 * 10^19.

First using the density formula, convert volume to mass then divide the mass substance from molecular weight of compound.
You will get the answer for any molecules.
You will get the answer for any molecules.

1 mole of water contains an avagadro number(6.023*10^23) of molecules.1 mole of H2O mass is 18g or volume 18ml.
So 0.0018ml of water contains 6.o23*10^19 molecules.
So 0.0018ml of water contains 6.o23*10^19 molecules.

In the question the volume of water is given. To relate this we must have to used volume of one mole equals to 22.4 lit rather than gram molecular mass.

Here, we must have to deal with volume rather than density then the answer will be different. We have to take the volume of one mole of water (22400ml).

Here mentioned room temperature and at STP the volume of a gas is 22.4L = 22400ml.
So, I think the correct answer is 4.83 * 10^16.
So, I think the correct answer is 4.83 * 10^16.

18 ml H2O.
no of molecule= 6.023x 10^19.
0.0018 ml of H2O.
No of molecule= (6.023x 10^19x0.00180/18= 6.023x10^19.
no of molecule= 6.023x 10^19.
0.0018 ml of H2O.
No of molecule= (6.023x 10^19x0.00180/18= 6.023x10^19.
