How grams of sucrose C12H22 1 are contained in a 12 ounce ca
How grams of sucrose (C12H22° 1) are contained in a 12 ounce can (3692 grams) of a soft drink that is 1.5% sucrose by mass. ((4 pts)
Solution
Suppose mass of soft drink = 100 g
Then mass of sucrose = 11.5 g
Now we can say that 100 g of soft drink contains 11.5 g sucrose therefore 369.2 g of soft drink will contain (11.5g / 100g) * 369.2 g = 3.11 g
Mass of sucrose contains = 3.11 g
