According to the definition of the mole of a substance, one mole of water contains Avogadro's number of water molecules : 6.02214076 × 1023 mol-1. The number of the moles of water in 0.045 g of water can be calculated using its molar mass, 18.02 g/mol:
mol.
Therefore, the number of water molecules is:
.
Answer: In on drop of water whose mass is 0.045 g , there are 1.504 × 1021 molecules of water.
