Question

Table sugar has a molar mass of 342 grams. How many grams of table sugar are needed to make 2.00 liters of a 0.500 M solution?

Answer 1

342 grams of sugar are needed.

Explanation:

This really should be in chemistry. Math types may not know any chemistry.

Step One

Find the number of moles needed in a solution of the givens.

Givens

V = 2.00 L

C = 0.500 moles / Liter

Formula

n = C * V

Sub and Solve

n = 2 * 0.5 = 1 mole

Since you need just 1 mole, the answer is 342 grams of sugar are needed to put into a solution of 2 Liters with a concentration of 0.500

The answer is to 3 decimal places so 342 is the answer.
