    Option A. 3 * 10^21 molecules

    Explanation:

    From Avogadro's hypothesis, 1mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules. This means that 1mole of H20 also contains 6.02x10^23 molecules.

    1mole of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18g

    If 1mole (i. e 18g) of H2O contains 6.02x10^23 molecules,

    Therefore 0.1g of H2O will contain = (0.1 x 6.02x10^23) / 18 = 3 x 10^21 molecules
