How many atoms are there in a sugar cube?

Answer 1

n = amount of mole <------- this is want you want to find out

m = weight of the cube

M = mole mass(the mass of one mole)

C

12H

22O

11

n=m/M

m= a sugar cube weighs about 3 grams

M= 12x12+22x1+11x16=342 g/mole

n = 3/342=0,008 mole

Amount of atoms is: n x 6.022x10^23

0,008 times 6.022 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 00

Don't have a calculator on me that can calculate this without exploding :S

Something like that, not guaranteeing this is 100% correct.

Answer 2

Sugar cubes are made up of sucrose, normal table sugar.

Sucrose is made up of one glucose and one fructose molecule.

Glucose and fructose are purely Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen.

Answer 3

Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are the atoms in sugar

Answer 4

Carbon Hydrogen and Oxygen, normally 6, 12 and 6 of them, respectively, in one molecule.

Answer 5

Almost all sugars have the formula CnH2nOn (n is between 3 and 7)

most have carbon hydrogen and oxygen for exampe glucose the sugar as the atomic structure C6H12O6

Answer 6

Sugar contains oxygen, hydrogen and carbon.

Answer 7

carbon, hydrogen, oxygen (C12 H22 011)

Answer 8

Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Answer 9

sugar
