1 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) is equal to:

Correct answer: C. 342 grams of sucrose

  • A. 340 grams of sucrose
  • B. 344 grams of sucrose
  • C. 342 grams of sucrose
  • D. 346 grams of sucrose

Explanation

The molar mass of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) is calculated by summing the atomic masses of all its atoms: (12×12.01) + (22×1.008) + (11×16.00) ≈ 342.3 g/mol. The closest answer is 342 grams.
