Answer:

30.11×10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NaOH = 200.0 g

Number of molecules of water formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NaOH + H₂SO₄      →     2H₂O + Na₂SO₄

Number of moles of NaOH:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 200 g/ 40 g/mol

Number of moles = 5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of NaOH and H₂O.

                      NaOH         :        H₂O

                          2             :          2

                         5              :            5

Number of molecules of water:

1 mole contain 6.022×10²³ molecules

5 mol × 6.022×10²³ molecules / 1mol

30.11×10²³ molecules
