The number of moles of water in 1 kg ice are:

Correct answer: D. 55.5 moles

  • A. 50 moles
  • B. 100 moles
  • C. 1000 moles
  • D. 55.5 moles

Explanation

1 mole of water corresponds to 18g. So, to calculate the number of moles of water in 1kg or 1000g of ice (NOTE: The state of the substance does not have an effect in such stoichiometric calculations), 1000 is divided by 18, which comes out to 55.5 moles.
