The molar mass of blood sugar, C6H12O6 also known as glucose and dextrose is

KIM [24]4 years ago

The molar mass is calculated by looking up the relative atomic mass values on a periodic table. The relative atomic mass is a value without units that is calculated on a Carbon-12 scale.

By looking at the periodic table (values will be to 3 significant figures [<em>2</em><em> for hydrogen though]</em>):
Molar mass (M) of 1 mole of Carbon = 12.0 g/mol
Molar mass (M) of 1 mole of Hydrogen = 1.0 g/mol
Molar mass (M) of 1 mole of Oxygen = 16.0 g/mol

So the molar mass is essentially the relative atomic mass (RAM), but molar mass has a unit, but RAM doesn't (it is a ratio).

Given the formula is C6H12O6 (without putting the numbers as subscripts), we can calculate as follows:
M (C6H12O6) = (6 x 12.0) + (12 x 1.0) + (6 x 16.0)
                       = 72.0 + 12.0 + 96.0
                       = 180.0 g/mol

Hope it's right :D

Carbon dioxide and helium which has a higher van der waals force of attraction between molecules ​
raketka [301]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide  

Explanation:

Neither helium nor carbon dioxide has a molecular dipole, so their strongest van der Waals attractive forces are London forces.

Helium is a small spherical atom with only a two electrons, so its atoms have quite weak attractions to each other.

CO₂ is a large linear molecule. It has more electrons than helium, so the attractive forces are greater. Furthermore, the molecules can align themselves compactly side-by-side and maximize the attractions (see below).

For example. CO₂ becomes a solid at -78 °C, but helium must be cooled to -272 °C to make it freeze (that's just 1 °C above absolute zero).

A student is instructed to make 1 L of a 2.0 M solution of CaCl2 using dry salt. How should he do this?
Pachacha [2.7K]
<span>The student should follow following steps to make 1 L of </span>2.0 M CaCl₂.<span>
<span>
1. First he should calculate the number of moles of 2.0 M CaCl</span></span>₂ in 1 L solution.<span>

</span>Molarity of the solution = 2.0 M<span>
Volume of solution which should be prepared = 1 L

Molarity = number of moles / volume of the solution

Hence, number of moles in 1 L = 2 mol

2. Find out the mass of dry CaCl</span>₂ in 2 moles.<span>

moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of CaCl₂ = 2 mol</span><span>
Molar mass of CaCl₂ = </span><span>110.98 g/mol

Hence, mass of CaCl</span>₂ = 2 mol x <span>110.98 g/mol
                                     = 221.96 g

3. Weigh the mass accurately 

4. Then take a cleaned and dry1 L volumetric flask and place a funnel top of it. Then carefully add the salt into the volumetric flask and finally wash the funnel and watch glass with de-ionized water. That water also should be added into the volumetric flask.

5. Then add some de-ionized water into the volumetric flask and swirl well until all salt are dissolved.

<span>6. Then top up to mark of the volumetric flask carefully. 
</span>
</span>
7. As the final step prepared solution should be labelled.
