Answer:
Number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen present in a teaspoon of sugar
So, 1 mole of sucrose contains 12 moles of carbon atoms, 22 moles of hydrogen atoms, and 11 moles of oxygen atoms.
Meaning of sucrose-carbohydrate A disaccharide with formula C 12 H 22 O 11 , consisting of two simple sugars, glucose and fructose; normal culinary sugar.
calculate the no.of moles of sugar.
11 oxygens times the atomic mass of about 16 equals 176. Now add up 144 + 22 + 176 = 342 which is the number of grams in one mole of sugar. To find the number of moles in 453.6 grams, divide 453.6 grams by 342 grams/mole. To convert from grams to moles, divide by the formula mass.
