Question

The compound responsible for the characteristic smell of garlic is allicin, The mass of 1.00 mol of allicin, rounded to the nearest integer, is __________ g.

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of 1.00 mol of allicin, rounded to the nearest integer, is 162 g

Explanation:

Allicin is a compound that derivates from the alliin which is produced by the catalyzis of an enzime.

The molecular formula is: C₆H₁₀OS₂.

Let's determine the molar mass which is the mass that corresponds to 1 mol

Molar mass C . 6 + Molar mass H . 10 + Molar mass O + Molar mass S . 2 =

12 g/mol . 6 + 1 g/mol . 10 + 16 g/mol + 32.06 g/mol . 2 =  162.1 g/mol
