The potato is naturally very low in sugars. Although a potato contains three types of sugars; sucrose, fructose and glucose, the average potato is less than one percent sugar.
The molarity can be calculated using the formula: moles of solute divided by liters of solution. In this case, the moles of sucrose is 25, and the liters of solution is 50. This gives a molarity of 0.5 M.
Yes, through a process called osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a cellular membrane. Water flows from high concentrations to low concentrations. The mass of the potato will change based on the molarity of the solution it is placed in. CHEMISTRY REFRESHER: molarity is the amount of moles of a substance per liter(of water). If the potato is placed in a solution with a lesser molarity than itself(the solution has less glucose than the potato) then we would expect for the potato to gain water. This is because there is a greater concentration of water outside of the cell wall, so water enters the cell in order to obtain equilibrium. Using the same reasoning we would expect for the potato to lose water if it is placed in a solution of higher molarity
To find the molarity, first convert the grams of sucrose to moles using its molar mass. Sucrose has a molar mass of 342.3 g/mol. Then, convert the milliliters of solution to liters. Finally, divide the moles of solute by the liters of solution to get the molarity.
This is because the potato, which is mostly water, is in a hypertonic solution (a solution with less water and more solute --here, sucrose-- than the potato). Since the solutions want to reach equilibrium (equal amounts of sucrose and water in both the solution and the potato), water diffuses out of the potato and sucrose diffuses into it. The potato loses its water weight, and sucrose doesn't replace the weight lost, the potato weighs less.
Is that 0.5L ? If yes, as 1L=1dm3, no. of mole= (volume)(concentration)=(0.5)(2)=1 mol
The molarity can be calculated using the formula: moles of solute divided by liters of solution. In this case, the moles of sucrose is 25, and the liters of solution is 50. This gives a molarity of 0.5 M.
Molarity (M) represents the moles of a solute per liter of a solvent. In this case, sucrose is the solute and water is the solvent. First, convert your 125g of sucrose to moles...molar mass of sucrose = 342.34 soo you have .365 moles of sucrose. Since you have exactly one L of solution, the molarity of the solution is .365 M Molarity (M) represents the moles of a solute per liter of a solvent.

Change in mass depends on the concentration of sucrose within the dialysis bags. If the concentration of sucrose is greater inside the bag than outside, then water will move into the bag. If the concentration of sucrose is lower inside the bag than outside, then water will move out of the bag.
The Disaccharide Sucrose found in a potato plant is in the flesh of the potato. The potato is nearly 100% starch and carbohydrates that produce sugars in the body.

To find the molarity, first calculate the number of moles of sucrose in 39g using its molar mass. Sucrose has a molar mass of approximately 342.3 g/mol. After calculating the number of moles, divide by the volume of the solution in liters (355 mL = 0.355 L) to obtain the molarity in mol/L.

Potato tubers make glucose by degrading sucrose (cane sugar). Sucrose is the end-product of photosynthesis and is transported from the leaves through the phloem to the tuber.
Molarity = moles of solute/Liters of solution Molarity = 5 moles sucrose/0.5 Liters = 10 M ----------
To calculate the grams of sucrose in 1 liter of soda with a molarity of 0.75 moles, you would first need to know the molar mass of sucrose, which is 342.3 g/mol. Next, you would use the formula: grams = moles x molar mass. Therefore, in this case, the amount of sucrose in 1 liter of soda would be 256.725 grams.
