A sample of water contains 5.24x10^22 molecules. How many moles are in this sample?

Thus there are 0.0870 moles of water sample.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

Thus there are 0.0870 moles of water sample.

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.
