Question

If there are 0.090 moles of sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) in the average can of soda, how many sugar molecules would this be

Answer 1

Given :

There are 0.090 moles of sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) in the average can of soda.

To Find :

How many sugar molecules would this be ?

Solution :

We know, in 1 mole of any compound their are
`6.022* 10^(23)` molecules of that compound.

So, number of molecules in 0.090 moles of compound is :

`n = 0.090 * 6.022 * 10^(23)\\\\n = 5.42* 10^(22)`

Therefore, number of molecules in 0.090 moles of compound is
`5.42 * 10^(22)` .
