Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.10 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Molarity = ?

mass of Sucrose = 125 g

volume = 3.5 l

Formula

Molarity = moles / volume

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of sucrose

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ = (12 x 12) + (1 x 22) + (16 x 11)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 g

2.- Convert the mass of sucrose to moles

342 g of sucrose ------------------- 1 mol

125 g of sucrose -------------------- x

x = (125 x 1) / 342

x = 0.365 moles

3.- Calculate the molarity

Molarity = 0.365 / 3.5

4.- Result

Molarity = 0.10
