    If 1 mL of water contains 20 drops then number of molecules in a drop of water is

    A)  \[6.023\times {{10}^{23}}\]molecules

    B)  \[1.376\times {{10}^{26}}\]molecules

    C)  \[1.344\times {{10}^{18}}\]molecules

    D)  \[4.346\times {{10}^{20}}\]molecules

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[\because \]  22400 ML water contains water molecules\[=6.023\times {{10}^{23}}\] \[\therefore \] In 1 ML, the number of water molecules  \[=\frac{6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{22400}\]Since, 1 ML contains 20 drops, therefore, number of water molecules in 1 drop                           \[=\frac{6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{22400\times 20}\]                          \[=1.344\times {{10}^{8}}\,\]molecules
