Question

The molar mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) is 342.3 g/mol. A chemist has a 0.500-mol sample of sucrose. What is the mass, in grams, of this sample?

a) 171

b) 342

c)500

d)684

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 171

Explanation:

We can find the mass (in grams) of a sample by multiplying the amount of moles by the molar mass.

In this case, we know we have 0.500-mol and would multiply it by the molar mass, 342.3g/mol, to give us the answer of 171.15g rounded down to 171g.

Equation: 0.500mol x 342.3g/mol = 171.15g
