11.35 g (about one tablespoon) of table sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) is dissolved in 242.9 mL of water (density 0.997 g/mL). The final volume is 250.0 mL (about one cup). 1.Calculate the molarity of sucrose in this solution. 2.Calculate the molality of sucrose in this solution. 3.Calculate the mass percent of sucrose in this solution.
1 ) Molarity of sucrose = Wt/Mwt * 1000/v
= 11.35/342 * 1000/250
= 0.133M
2) Molality of sucrose = Wt/Mwt * 1000/w
= 11.35/342 * 1000/242
= 0.137m
3) mass percent = gr solute / gr solution * 100
= 4.54
