36 chromosomes. :-
as rice is angiosperms so there must be double fertilization... during double fertilization one sperm fuse with egg as you may already know... but one sperm fuses with two nucleus to form endosperm... chromosomes number constant through out specie.. rice has 24 so haploid gamet must be of 12...endosperm is( 3n) so it will have 12*3=36.
