Question

Volume occupied by one molecule of water(density =1g/cm3) is

Answer 1

density = mass/volume

volume=mass/density

=1 gram/ 1 gram cm⁻³ = 1 cm³

1 g water= 1/18 moles of water

(at wt of H *2 + at wt of oxygen = 18)

volume occupied by 1 molecules of water = (18 / (6.02 x 10²³)) cm³

= 3 x 10⁻²³ cm³
