Question

What is the mass , in grams of 0.0287 moles of sucrose

Answer 1

Hey there!

Sucrose is C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.

Find molar mass of sucrose:

C: 12 x 12.01 = 144.12

H: 22 x 1.008 = 22.176

O: 16 x 11 = 176

--------------------------------

                  342.296 grams

That is the mass of one mole of sucrose.

We have 0.0287.

342.296 x 0.0287 = 9.82

The mass of 0.0287 moles of sucrose is 9.82 grams.

Hope this helps!
