How many moles of glucose are present in 100 mL of a 1.0 M solution of glucose in water?

mol glucose

0.10 moles

Explanation:

We are given;

Volume of the solution as 100 mL Molarity of glucose solution is 1.0 M

We are required to calculate the number of moles of glucose.

We need to know that molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the number of moles of the solute by the volume of the solution.

That is;

Molarity = Moles of solute : Volume of the solution Rearranging the formula; Moles of solute = Molarity * Volume of the solution

Therefore;

Moles of glucose = 1.0 M * 0.1 L

= 0.10 moles

Thus, the number of moles present in the solution is 0.10 moles
