An aqueous sucrose (C12H22O11) solution must be created for an experiment. If 100.00 mL of 0.200 M solution is needed, what amount of sucrose (in grams) must be weighed out

6.85 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Calculate the moles of sucrose (solute) required

Molarity is equal to the moles of solute divided by the liters of solution.

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

moles of solute = M × liters of solution

moles of solute = 0.200 mol/L × 0.10000 L = 0.0200 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0200 moles of sucrose

The molar mass of sucrose is 342.3 g/mol.

0.0200 mol × 342.3 g/mol = 6.85 g
