The formula for sucrose is C12H22O11. Figure the molar mass of sucrose to the nearest gram?

For this you need the atomic (molecular) mass of C12H22O11. Take the number of moles and multiply it by the atomic mass. Divide by one mole for units to cancel. C12H22O11= 342 grams.105 moles C12H22O11 × (342 grams)= 35.9 grams C12H22O11


How many molecules does one mole of sucrose contain?

the molecular formula for sucrose is C12H22O11. in order for you to get the molecular weight of this compound you would take the molecular weight of carbon 12.0107 and multiply that by 12, the molecular weight of hydrogen 1.0079 times 22, and the molecular weight of oxygen 15.9994 times 11 and add them all together. should be 342.296 g/mol.


How many calories are in gram of sugar?

Granulated Sugar, or Table Sugar, contains around 4 calories per gram. Hence, a level teaspoon of granulated sugar, which is around 4g of sugar, will contain 16 calories. An average sugar cube, at 6 grams, contains around 25 calories and an average sugar packet from a coffee shop would contain about the same.


How many moles of sucrose are in 200 grams?

200g times 342.2965 g/mol = 68459.3 moles


Which has the largest mass A 3 mol of magnesium B 1 mol of sucrose c12h22o11 C 10 mol of helium?

Since magnesium and helium do not form elemental molecules, a mole of these elements is the same as a gram atomic mass, which is 24.305 for magnesium and 4.00260 for helium. The gram molecular mass for sucrose is 342.30. Therefore, the mass of: A. 3 moles of magnesium is 72.915 grams; B 1 mole of sucrose (C12H22O11) is 342.30 grams; and C. 10 moles of helium is 40.0260 grams. The largest of these is obviously the single mole of sucrose.
