To find the molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6), we need to calculate the total molar mass by adding the molar masses of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6):
6(C) + 12(H) + 6(O) = 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 72.06 + 12.12 + 96.00 = 180.18 g/mol
Now, we can calculate the number of moles of glucose in a 30g sample:
Moles = Mass / Molar mass
Moles = 30g / 180.18 g/mol = 0.166 moles
Therefore, the chemist will use approximately 0.17 moles of glucose in the experiment.
Use the table of molar masses to complete the question. Do NOT use any other values except the ones provided in the table below. Element Molar Mass (g/mol) carbon 12.01 hydrogen 1.01 oxygen 16.00 A chemist will use a sample of 30g of glucose (C6H12O6 ) in an experiment. Determine the number of moles of glucose the chemist will use based on the molar mass values provided in the table. (Your value should be rounded to 2 decimal places; i.e. the hundredths place). (2 points) The number of moles the chemist will use is: moles.
