To find the number of molecules in 9.0 g of steam (water vapor), first determine the number of moles. The molar mass of water (H₂O) is approximately 18.02 g/mol. Therefore, 9.0 g of steam is equivalent to ( \frac{9.0 \text{ g}}{18.02 \text{ g/mol}} \approx 0.5 ) moles. Since one mole contains Avogadro's number of molecules ((6.022 \times 10^{23}) molecules/mol), the total number of molecules is (0.5 \text{ moles} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \text{ molecules/mole} \approx 3.01 \times 10^{23} ) molecules.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
