A teacher adds a small piece of sodium to a glass trough containing water and universal indicator.

The universal indicator changes colour.
The equation for the reaction is

2Na( s)+2H2O(l)→2NaOH(aq)+H2( g)2 \mathrm{Na}(\mathrm{~s})+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})

The reaction with sodium produces 0.036 g of hydrogen gas.

One mole of hydrogen gas contains 6.0×10236.0 \times 10^{23} molecules.
Calculate the number of molecules of hydrogen gas produced in the reaction with sodium.

Give your answer to two significant figures.
number of molecules of hydrogen gas =
