One mole (mol) of glucose (molecular mass = 180 daltons) is

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

One mole of any substance is defined as the amount of the substance that contains Avogadro's number of particles (6.02 x 1023). Therefore, one mole of glucose is equal to 180 grams of glucose (the molecular mass of glucose). Choice A is incorrect because it specifies the number of molecules (which is not equivalent to moles) and adds an extra factor of 1023. Choice B is incorrect because it specifies a concentration, not the amount of glucose. Choice C is incorrect because it implies that the amount of dissolved glucose is limited to one mole. Choice E is incorrect because it specifies both the amount and concentration of glucose in solution.
