Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry

Solution:

Formula of the compound suggests that one molecule of the compound contains $18$ molecules of water. Number of water molecules in $333 \,g$ of compound

=number of moles $\times 6.023 \times 10^{23} \times 18 $

$=\frac{333}{666} \times 6.023 \times 10^{23} \times 18=9 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}$
