There are SIXTEEN watertight compartments on the titanic
6 watertight compartments
The Titanic possessed 15 bulkheads, which divided the ship into 16 watertight compartments. The Titanic was designed to still stay afloat even if 4 compartments were breached, but upon impact 5 of them were breached, and eventually they all flooded as the ship sank.
The iceberg ruptured how many of the Titanics watertight compartments
The ship was designed and built to stay afloat if four watertight compartments were breached, but the iceberg breached five compartments, so the ship couldn't stay afloat

It did
The iceberg ruptured how many of the Titanics watertight compartments
16 watertight compartments divided by 15 bulkheads that went from the bottom of the ship up to E-Deck
The ship was designed and built to stay afloat if four watertight compartments were breached, but the iceberg breached five compartments, so the ship couldn't stay afloat
Because it was designed and built to be able to stay afloat with 4 watertight compartments breached, but the iceberg breached 5 compartments, which was one too many,
It was called the Unsinkable Ship because it was designed to stay afloat with 4 watertight compartments breached, but 5 compartments were breached when the ship collided with the iceberg
5 watertight compartments. She could stay a flote for 4 but not 5. Hope it helps
