(a) 0.2 mole of sucrose (C12H22O11)

 

(b) 2 moles of CO2

 

(c) 2 moles of CaCO3

 

(d) 10 moles of H O

 

Best Answer

Answer

(c)

Weight of a sample in gram = number of moles × molar mass

(a) 0.2 moles of C12H22O11 = 0.2 × 342 = 68.4 g

(b) 2 moles of CO2 = 2×44 = 88 g

(c) 2 moles of CaCO3 = 2×100 = 200 g

(d) 10 moles of H2O = 10×18 = 180 g
