Answer:

5.22*1022 molecules of glucose (C6H12O6) is equal to 15.08 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of molecule of glucose in one mole
= 6.023 * 10^(23)

Now mass of one mole of glucose
= 180 grams

Number of moles in
6.023 * 10^(23) molecules of glucose
= 1

Number of moles in
1 molecules of glucose =
(1)/(6.023 * 10^(23))

Number of moles in
5.22 * 10^(22) molecules of glucose =
(5.22* 10^(22))/(6.023 * 10^(23)) =
0.083 moles

Weight of
0.083 moles


= 0.083 * 180\\= 15.08grams
