Find the number of water molecules in 1 mL of water vapours at STP?
Options
- A1.69 10¹⁹
- B2.00 10²¹
- C1.05 10²¹
- D2.69 10¹⁹
Correct answer
D. 2.69 10¹⁹
Step-by-step solution
Calculating water molecules in 1 mL vapor at STP Standard Temperature and Pressure conditions define molar gas volume as 22.4 L/mol. For water vapor occupying 1 mL = 1 10⁻³ L , the number of moles is n = 1 10⁻³ 22.4 = 1 22400 mol . Using Avogadro's number N_A = 6.022 10²³ molecules/mol , the molecular count becomes n N_A = 1 22400 6.022 10²³ . This simplifies to approximately 2.69 10¹⁹ molecules, corresponding to option D.
