Chemists have determined that 18.0 g of water consists of 6.02 x 10 23 molecules. Determine the number of water molecules a one quart container can hold. ( 1 quart = 946.35 g )
Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Thus, the mass of the products of a chemical reaction must be equal to the mass of the starting materials. Formally, this concept is called the law of conservation of mass. A sample of sodium reacts completely with 0.426 kg k g of chlorine, forming 702 g g of sodium chloride. What mass of sodium reacted?

Triatomic? That is for you to determine.)
