A fry would loose mass if it was hypotonic and the solution was hypertonic, in other words if the solution contained more solute than the fry. This would change the mass because through osmosis the water would balance out the ratio of solvent to solute in the fry and the solution, since the solution originally had more solute than the fry, more water would have to go to the solution to balance it out.

A 20.0 g sample of sucrose contains 8.4 g of carbon what is the mass percentage of carbon sucrose?

The mass percentage of carbon in sucrose can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbon by the total mass of sucrose and then multiplying by 100. In this case, the mass percentage of carbon in sucrose would be (8.4 g / 20.0 g) x 100 = 42%.


How would you find the percent of 17g sucrose in 188g of water?

To find the percent of 17g sucrose in 188g of water, first calculate the total mass: 17g (sucrose) + 188g (water) = 205g. Then, divide the mass of sucrose (17g) by the total mass (205g), and multiply by 100 to convert to a percentage. The percent of 17g sucrose in 188g of water would be roughly 8.29%.


How many moles are in 342g sucrose?

To calculate the number of moles in 342g of sucrose, divide the given mass by the molar mass of sucrose. The molar mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) is approximately 342.3 g/mol. Therefore, 342g of sucrose is equal to 1 mole.


What is the Atomic mass of sucrose?

Will changing sucrose concentrations change the mass of the potato?

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


Why is there a loss of mass when heating sucrose?

The law of conservation of mass clearly states that the mass could not have been destroyed (nor created for that matter). Theresore, when the reaction with air took place, part of the mass of the sucrose would be converted to a gaseous state, and probably a chemical reaciton with the air would create a different compound, and would escape into the atmosphere. hope this answers the question.

How many moles of sucrose are in 200 grams?

To calculate the number of moles of sucrose in 200 grams, you need to divide the given mass by the molar mass of sucrose. The molar mass of sucrose is approximately 342 grams/mol. Therefore, 200 grams of sucrose is equal to 0.585 moles.

How many grams of sucrose (C12H22O11) are in 1.55 L of 0.758 M sucrose solution?

1 litre is 1000ml therefore 15g per 100ml would equal 150g per 1000ml. So 3 Litres would contain 450g.
