29. A certain nut crunch cereal contains 11.0 grams of sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) per serving size of 60.0 grams. How many servings of this cereal must be eaten to consume 0.0278 moles of sugar?

The answer is: 51.8 g (86% of serving size)

Explanation:

In order to solve the problem, we have to first determine the number of moles there are in 11.0 g of sucrose. Sucrose has a molecular weight of 342 g (we calculate this from the molar mass of the elements : 12 x 12 g/mol C + 22 x 1 g/mol H + 11 x 16 g/mol O). So, we divide the mass (11.0 g) into the molecular weight of sucrose:

11.0 g sucrose x 1 mol/342 g sucrose= 0.032 mol

We have 0.032 mol of sucrose in a serving of 60 g. But we need less moles (0.0278 mol):

0.032 mol 60 g serving

0.0278 mol x= 0.0278 mol x 60 g serving/0.032 mol

                                x= 51.8 g

So,  lesser than 1 serving of 60 g must be eaten to consume 0.0278 mol os sucrose. Exactly, 51.8 g (which stands for a 86% of the serving size).
