Question

How many moles of glucose are in 19.1g of glucose?​

Answer 1

Answer:

0.106 mol (3s.f.)

Explanation:

To find the number of moles, divide the mass of glucose (in grams) by its Mr. Glucose has a chemical formula of C6H12O6. To find the Mr, add all the Ar of all the atoms in C6H12O6.

Ar of C= 12, Ar of H= 1, Mr of O= 16

These Ar values can be found on the periodic table.

Mr of glucose= 6(12)+ 12(1) + 6(16)= 180

Moles of glucose

= mass ÷ mr

= 19.1 ÷ 180

= 0.106 mol (3 s.f.)
