    Raindrops vary in size from about 0.02 in. (0.5 mm) to as much as 0.33 in. (8 mm) in thunderstorms. Raindrops come in many different sizes and can get to as big as a quarter inch. They cannot get bigger than that and the reason is that the wind resistance begins breaking them up into smaller raindrops. Raindrops don't get much larger than a quarter inch

    Solution:

    According to the Avogadro's number:

    6.022 * 10^23 drops per 0.050 g / drop = 3.011 * 10^22 grams per mole of drops

    3.011 * 10^22 grams per 1 kg / 1000 grams = 3.011 * 10^19 kilograms / mole of drops

    thus the answers are:

    3.0 * 10^22 grams per mole of drops

    3.0 * 10^19 kilograms per mole of drops

    And,

    In the calculation of how many moles of raindrops in the Pacific Ocean is:

    7.08X10^20kg per 3.0 * 10^19 kilograms per mole of drops = 23.5 moles of drops

    This is the required solution.
