Question

Use the table of molar masses to complete the question. Do NOT use any other values except the ones provided in the table below. Element Molar Mass (g/mol) carbon 12.01 hydrogen 1.01 oxygen 16.00 A chemist will use a sample of 30g of glucose (C6H12O6 ) in an experiment. Determine the number of moles of glucose the chemist will use based on the molar mass values provided in the table. (Your value should be rounded to 2 decimal places; i.e. the hundredths place). (2 points) The number of moles the chemist will use is: moles.

Answer 1

To find the molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6), we need to calculate the total molar mass by adding the molar masses of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6):
6(C) + 12(H) + 6(O) = 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 72.06 + 12.12 + 96.00 = 180.18 g/mol

Now, we can calculate the number of moles of glucose in a 30g sample:
Moles = Mass / Molar mass
Moles = 30g / 180.18 g/mol = 0.166 moles

Therefore, the chemist will use approximately 0.17 moles of glucose in the experiment.
