How many moles of carbon are produced When 1745g of sugar react according to the equation C6H12O6+ H2SO4 to 6C +6H2O

Number of moles of C produced =  58.08 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sugar = 1745 g

Moles of C produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆  +   6H₂SO₄    →     6C + 6(H₂SO₄.H₂O)

Number of moles of sugar:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 1745 g/180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 9.68 mol

Now we will compare the moles of C and sugar.

                 C₆H₁₂O₆          :           C

                      1                  :           6

                    9.68              :          6×9.68 = 58.08 mol

Number of moles of C produced =  58.08 mol
