Concept Introduction:
Number of moles is related to mass and molar mass as follows:
Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.
According to Avogadro’s law, 1 mole of a substance contains
Thus, number of molecules can be calculated from number of moles using the following conversion factor:

Explanation of Solution
Mass of
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Since, 1 molecule of
Number of moles of
Putting the values,
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Since, 1 mole of water molecule contains 3 atoms thus, number of atoms will be:
Number of molecules of
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Molar mass of carbon dioxide is 44.01 g/mol thus, mass of carbon dioxide is:
Since, 1 molecule of carbon dioxide contains 3 atoms thus, number of atoms can be calculated as follows:
Number of moles of HCl is 1.26 mol and molar mass of HCl is 36.46 g/mol thus, mass can be calculated as follows:
Putting the values,
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Since, 1 mol of HCl contains 2 atoms thus, number of atoms can be calculated as follows:
Number of molecules of
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Molar mass of water is 18 g/mol thus, mass of water is:
Since, 1 molecule of water contains 3 atoms thus, number of atoms can be calculated as follows;
Mass of
Since, 1 mol of a substance contains
Since, 1 mol of
