MCQ
Which of the following would weigh the highest?
  • A
    $0.2$ mole of sucrose $\left( C _{12} H _{22} O _{\ldots}\right)$
  • B
    $2$ moles of $CO _2$
  • $2$ moles of $CaCO _3$
  • D
    $10$ moles of $H _2 O$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$2$ moles of $CaCO _3$
$a.$ Mass of $1$ mole of sucrose $(12 \times 12)+(1 \times 22)+(16 \times 11)=342 g$
Mass of $0.2$ mole of sucrose $=342 \times 0.2=68.4 g$
$b.$ Mass of $1$ mole of $CO _2=12+(16 \times 2)=44 g$. Mass of $2$ moles of $CO _2=44 \times 2=88 g$
$c.$ Mass of $1$ mole of $CaCO _3=40+12+(16 \times 3)=100 g$
Mass of $2$ moles of $CaCO _3=100 \times 2=200 g$
$d.$ Mass of $1$ mole of $H _2 O =2+16=18 g$
Mass of $10$ moles of $H _2 O =18 \times 10=180 g$
Therefore, mass of $2$ moles of $CaCO _3$ is the highest, i.e., $200 g .$
