How many glucose molecules are contained in 1 liter of a 10 M solution of glucose in water?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine the number of glucose molecules, we need to use Avogadro's Number (6.02 × 10^23 molecules/mol) and the molarity of the solution.

First, we need to find the total number of moles of glucose in 1 liter of the solution. We can do this by multiplying the volume (1 L) by the concentration (10 M):

1 L × 10 mol/L = 10 moles of glucose

Next, we can use Avogadro's Number to convert moles to molecules:

10 moles × 6.02 × 10^23 molecules/mol = 6.02 × 10^24 glucose molecules

Therefore, the answer is C.
