A cup is 8 fluid ounces. And 8 ounces is about 236.6 grams of water.

There are 18 grams of water in one mole of water, and a mole of anything contains Avogadro's number of molecules of that compound. That's 6.02 x 1023 molecules.

Our (236.6 grams of water) divided by (18 grams per mole) = 13.14 moles of water

Our (13.14 moles of water)(6.02 x 1023 molecules per mole) = 7.91 x 1024 molecules in the 8 ounce glass of water.

We had 8 ounces of water. We converted to grams. Then we looked up water to see how many grams of water there were in a mole of water. Then we found out how many moles we had in our cup of water. Then, because we knew how many molecules of water were in a mole (we know because a mole of anything is Avogadro's number of particles of that substance), we multiply to find out how many molecules of water were in the cup of water.

That's how we found that there are 7.91 x 1024 molecules in a cup of water.

How do you decrease the number of molecules in a glass of water without changing the number of water molecules?

If the water is impure, you could remove the impurities. If the water is pure, it's impossible to decrease the number of molecules without changing the number of water molecules, which would be the only kind of molecules present in that case.


How does the number of atoms in the molecules that are found in air and water compare with the number of atoms in molecules that are found in food?

Molecules in air and water tend to be simpler and have fewer atoms compared to those found in food. Food molecules are typically more complex and larger in size, containing more atoms due to their role in providing energy and nutrients to living organisms.


36g of water have how many molecules?

To find the number of water molecules in 36g of water, you first need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water (18g/mol). Then you can use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23) to find the number of molecules in one mole of water. Finally, you multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number to get the total number of water molecules in 36g.


How many molecules are in 10 grams?

A mole of water is about 18 grams or 18 milliliters of water.A mole of water has 6.022 x 10^23 water molecules. And 10.0 grams of has 3.345 × 10^23 water molecules. And there are 3 total atoms in water molecules, which is H2O. (3.34 × 10^23)*3=1.006 × 10^24 Which means that 1x10^24 atoms are in 10.0 grams of water.

How many molecules of water does a 50g sample of H2O have?

A 50g sample of H2O contains approximately 2.78 x 10^24 molecules of water. This is calculated by first converting the mass to moles, then using Avogadro's number to determine the number of molecules present in that many moles of water.

How can one determine the naming conventions for hydrates?

To determine the naming conventions for hydrates, one must identify the compound's chemical formula and the number of water molecules attached to it. The naming convention typically involves stating the name of the compound followed by a numerical prefix indicating the number of water molecules present, and ending with the word "hydrate."


How many molecules of water are produced if 2.0g of sodium sulfate are produced in the above reactionH2SO4+2NaOH=H2O+Na2SO4?

The reaction requires 2 moles of hydrogen gas and 1 mole of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of water.


If a snowflake contains 1.8 1018 molecules of water how many moles of water does it contain?

To determine the number of moles of water in the snowflake, divide the number of molecules of water by Avogadro's number, which is approximately 6.022 x 10^23. So, 1.8 x 10^18 molecules of water divided by Avogadro's number is approximately 3 x 10^-6 moles of water in the snowflake.


Is there more water molecules in thermal energy when its hot or cold?

The number of water molecules is not dependent on temperature.


36g of water have how many molecules?

To find the number of water molecules in 36g of water, you first need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water (18g/mol). Then you can use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23) to find the number of molecules in one mole of water. Finally, you multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number to get the total number of water molecules in 36g.


How many molecules of water are in 5.65 moles of water?

A mole of water contains avagadro's number of molecules of water. Therefore 5.65 moles contains 5.65 * 6.022x1023 molecules of water which equals 3.40243x1024 molecules of water.


How many molecules are in 6.9 g H2O?

To determine the number of molecules in 6.9 g of water (H2O), you first need to convert grams to moles. The molar mass of water is approximately 18 g/mol. Therefore, 6.9 g is equal to 6.9/18 = 0.383 moles of water. Next, you can use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23) to find the number of molecules in 0.383 moles of water, which is approximately 2.3 x 10^23 molecules.


How many molecules are there in 39 grams of water?

Steam is just water. Water weighs the same per molecule regardless whether it is ice, water, or steam. That said, the molecular weight of water is right at 18 g/mole. So it seems that 9.0 grams of steam is about half a mole of water. Therefore we just divide avagrado's number by 2 and we get: 6.022 x 1023 / 2 = 3.011 x 1023 molecules
