Taking into account the definition of Avogadro's number and molar mass, 3.49334×10²² molecules of sucrose are present.

<h3>Definition of molar mass</h3>

The molar mass of substance is a property defined as its mass per unit quantity of substance, in other words, molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

<h3>Avogadro's Number</h3>

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

<h3>Molecules of sugar in this case</h3>

In first place, the molar mass of sucrose is 342 g/mole. So, you can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 342 grams of the compound are contained in 1 mole, 20 grams of the compound are contained in how many moles?

amount of moles=\frac{20 gramsx1 mole}{342 grams}

<u><em>amount of moles= 0.058 moles</em></u>

Now, considering the Avogadro's number, you can apply the following rule of three: If 1 mole of the compound contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 0.058 moles contains how many molecules?

amount of moleculas= (6.023×10²³ molecules × 0.058 moles)÷ 1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules= 3.49334×10²² molecules</em></u>

Finally, 3.49334×10²² molecules of sucrose are present.

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

Concave Lenses

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • A concave lens is thin in the middle and thick at the edges, such that it seems to cave inwards. It spreads light rays apart producing an image smaller than the actual object.
  • <em><u>Images formed by a concave lens are virtual, upright, reduced in size and located on the same side of the lens as the object. Diverging lenses or concave lens always produce images that share these characteristics. The location of the object does not affect the characteristics of the image. </u></em>
