Question

How many moles of glucose (C6H12O6) are in 1.6 liters of a 0.75 M C6H12O6 solution? show all work

Answer 1

moles glucose =1.6 L× 0.75 mol/Let =1.2

Answer 2

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles in liter of solution.

Mathematically,      Molarity = $\frac{no. of moles}{Volume in liter}$

The data is given as volume is 1.6 liters and molarity is 0.75 M. Therefore, calculate the number of moles as follows.

                    Molarity = $\frac{no. of moles}{Volume in liter}$

or,         No. of moles = $Molarity \times Volume in liter$

                                   = 0.75 M × 1.6 liter

                                   = 1.2 moles

Thus, we can conclude that there are 1.2 moles of glucose in 1.6 liters of a 0.75 M C6H12O6 solution.
