Answer 1

Answer:

Mole of suger and mole of vit C are not equal

Explanation: Mole is defined as ratio of a given mass of a substance and the molecular mass of the substance.

MOLE= Given Mass of a substance/ Molecular mass of a substance

sugar and vit C are made of different molecules.so they cannot be equal.

sugar is a carbohydrate made of 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of Hydrogen, and 11 atoms of Oxygen.

vit C is made up of 6 atoms of carbon, 8 atoms of Hydrogen, and 6 atoms of Oxygen.

Sugar molar mass:342g·mol−1

vit C molar mass:176.12 g·mol−1
