How many atoms does one molecule of table sugar have?

Answer 1

Table sugar has the chemical name and formula of sucrose (C12H22O11). For every one mole of sucrose, 12 moles of carbon are contained. In order to calculate moles you take 12 multiplied by Avogadro's number of 6.0221413 x 10^23. That would equal 7.2x10^24 atoms of carbon per molecule of sucrose.

Answer 2

The molecule of sugar (sucrose or saccharose, C12H22O11) contain 45 atoms.

From these 12 are carbon atoms.

Answer 3

One molecule of table sugar, or sucrose, has 45 atoms. This includes 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.

Answer 4

One molecule of table sugar has 45 atoms.
