Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A mole refers to a specific number of particles, in this case 6.02 × 10^23 molecules of H₂O. This is option D. Option A is simply the molar mass of the compound and option B refers to a single molecule, neither of which is the definition of a mole. Option C refers to the molar mass multiplied by Avogadro's number, but this mass is not correct for water. Option E is incorrect because it only refers to the number of H and O atoms, not the whole water molecule.
