Question

360 amu of glucose contains : a.2 moles of glucose molecule
b.24 Hydrogen atoms.
c. 12 moles of carbon atoms
d. 2 molecule of glucose
Can it have two answer option B.& C

Answer 1

Answer:

option a is correct

Explanation:

given mass- 360 amu

molecular mass of glucose is 180

mole - mass/ molecular mass

= 360/180= 2 mole

Answer 2

Concept:

An aldehyde group and six carbon atoms make up a glucose molecule. It is a monosaccharide. Since cells use glucose as a source of energy during photosynthesis and respiration, glucose is the most significant carbohydrate in both plants and animals.

Given:

The mass of glucose = 360 amu = 360 g

Find:

360 amu of glucose contains?

Solution:

The molecular formula of glucose is C₆H₁₂O₆.

Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol.

The number of moles of glucose (n) can be calculated as:

                                          n = Mass / Molar mass

By substituting the given values in the above expression of a number of moles we get,

n = 360 g / 180 g/mol

n = 2 mol

Thus, 360 amu of glucose contains 2 moles of glucose.

Hence, the correct option is (d.) 2 molecules of glucose.
