Clarification:

What constitutes a word?

A sequence of non-space characters constitutes a word.
Could the input string contain leading or trailing spaces?

Yes. However, your reversed string should not contain leading or trailing spaces.
How about multiple spaces between two words?

Reduce them to a single space in the reversed string.

// "  fadf the fdasf  fdfaf          "
// "a"

public class Solution {
public String reverseWords(String s) {
if(s==null || s.length() == 0 ) return s;

StringBuilder res = new StringBuilder();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for(int i=0; i<s.length(); i++) {
char c = s.charAt(i);
if( c != ' ' ) {
sb.append(c);
} else if(sb.length()!=0 ) {
res.insert(0, " ");
res.insert(0, sb.toString() );
sb = new StringBuilder();
}
}

if(sb.length()!=0 ) {
res.insert(0, " ");
res.insert(0, sb);
}
return res.length()==0 ? "" : res.substring(0, res.length()-1);

}
