Solution

The correct option is B 9.0×6.02×1023
Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3.18 H2O :
Molar mass=2×atomic mass of Al+3× atomic mass of sulphur+12× atomic mass of O +18×(2× atomic mass of H+1×atomic mass of O)

Molar mass=2×27+3× 32+12×16 +18×(21+1×16)

M =666 g/mol
M =666 g/mol
Number of moles of Al2(SO4)3.18H2O=333666=0.5

Number of molecular of water =18×0.5×6.02×1023
=9×6.02×1023

Hence the correct option is B.
