What is the quantity of glucose obtained when \(68.4 \mathrm{~g}\) of sucrose is hydrolyzed in laboratory under ideal condition ? (molar mass of sucrose \(=342 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) )

  1. A \(198 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~g}\)
  2. B \(180 \mathrm{~g}\)
  3. C \(68 \cdot 4 \mathrm{~g}\)
  4. D \(36 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~g}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(36 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~g}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation


\(342 \mathrm{~g}\) of sucrose gives \(180 \mathrm{~g}\) of glucose.
\(\therefore 68.4 \mathrm{~g}\) of sucrose gives \(\frac{180 \times 68.4}{342}=36 \mathrm{~g}\) of glucose.
