Explanation:

Avogadro constant is defined as the number of molecules present in one mole of compound.

One mole of water is 18 grams.

Since 3.0 * 10^(-21) grams contain 200 molecules, it follows that 18 grams should have

18 cancel("grams") xx 200/(3 xx 10^(-21) cancel("grams")) = 12 xx 10^23

Which shows something is wrong with the question because Avogadro's constant is 6.02 * 10^(23).
