Mass is the weight of the compound or the molecule in a sample that is given in grams. The mass of sucrose in the sample is 171 gms.
<h3>What is mass?</h3>The mass of the compound is the product of the molar mass of the compound and the number of moles of the compound in a sample.
Given,
The molar mass (m.w.t) of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol
Number of moles (n) of sucrose = 0.500 moles
The mass of sucrose is calculated as:
Therefore. the mass of sucrose in the sample is option A. 171 gms.
