Question

The molar concentration of sucrose in a can of soda is 0.375 M. How much sucrose would be found in a 2 liter bottle of soda of the same concentration?

A)
0.075 mol


B)
0.19 mol


C)
0.75 mol


D)
1.9 mol

Answer 1

C) 0.75 mol.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Molarity is defined as the no. of moles of solute dissolved in 1.0 L of the solution.

So, The molar concentration of sucrose in a can of soda is 0.375 M means that: every 1.0 L of sucrose contains 0.375 mol of sucrose.

∴ 2 liter bottle of soda of the same concentration contains (2 * 0.375 mol = 0.75 mol) of sucrose.

Thus, the right choice is: C) 0.75 mol.
