How many molecules in a glass of water?

The so-called "molecular weight" of H2O is approx. 18 grams. That means that 18 grams of water contains one mole of water. A mole is defined as 6.022 x 1023 particles (molecules) of a substance.

So say that a glass of water typically holds 180 milliliters of water. That would be 6 trillion trillion molecules.

You're welcome!

Regards,
