molarity  =  moles  /volume  in  liters

find   moles  =  mass/molar  mass

=  34.2g /  342  g/mol=  0.1  moles


molarity  is  therefore=  0.1/300  x1000  =  0.3 M

Answer:

[tex]M=0.333M[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the first step is to compute the molar mass of sugar, more specifically sucrose, [tex]C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}[/tex] as shown below:

[tex]M_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}=12g/mol*12+1g/mol*22+16g/mol*11=342g/mol[/tex]

Afterwards, we compute the moles contained into 34.2 grams of sugar, based on the previously computed molar mass as follows:

[tex]n_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}=34.2gC_{12}H_{22}O_{11}*\frac{1molC_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}{342gC_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}=0.1molC_{12}H_{22}O_{11}[/tex]

Finally, we apply the molarity equation taking into account that the 300.0 mL must be used in liters rather than milliliters, that is 0.3 L:

[tex]M=\frac{n_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}}{V_{solution}} = \frac{0.100molC_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}{0.3000L}\\M=0.333M[/tex]

Best regards.
