How many moles would there be in 100 g of glucose? In 500 g of glucose? SHOW WORK
vivado [14]

Answer:

a) 0.56moles

b) 2.78moles

Explanation:

The number of moles can be calculated by using the formula;

Mole (n) = Mass (M) ÷ Molar mass (MM)

For a glucose molecule, with chemical formula: C6H12O6

Where atomic mass of C= 12, H=1, O= 16

Molar mass of C6H12O6= 12(6) + 1(12) + 16(6)

= 72 + 12 + 96

= 180g/mol

a) In 100g of glucose;

Mole = 100/180

Mole = 0.56moles

b) In 500g of glucose

Mole = 500/180

Mole = 2.78moles
