    50 liters of what?

    If you are talking about a liquid, you will need to know the density of the liquid (how much does 5 liters weigh), and the molecular weight of the liquid (grams per mole) - then you can convert like this:

    Volume(liters) x grams/liter X 1/(grams/mole) x Avogadro's number (molecules/mole) = molecules.

    If it's a gas you're talking about, then you can use the ideal gas law: PV=nRT. You will need to know the gas's pressure (P) and temperature (T) - then the number of moles is n = RT/PV. Once you have a value for n, you can multiply by Avogadro's number to get the number of molecules.
