the molar mass of sucrose (c12h22o11) is 342.3 g/mol. a chemist has a 0.500 - mol sample of sucrose. what is…

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mass - mole formula

$m = n\times M$ (where $m$ is mass, $n$ is amount of substance in moles, $M$ is molar mass)

Step2: Substitute given values

$n = 0.500\ mol$, $M=342.3\ g/mol$, so $m=0.500\ mol\times342.3\ g/mol$

Step3: Calculate the mass

$m = 171.15\ g\approx171\ g$

Answer:

171 grams
