Chapter 3, Problem 15E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The correct statement for glucose needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to Avogadro’s law, in 1 mol of any substance there are $6.023\times {10}^{23}$ units of the substance present. This is denoted by symbol $N_{\text{A}}$ and known as Avogadro’s number. Thus, number of moles for given number of molecules can be calculated as follows:

$n=\frac{N}{N_A}$

The mass of a substance can be calculated from number of moles as follows:

$m=n\times M$

Here, M is molar mass of the substance.

Density of any substance is related to mass and volume as follows:

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

Here, m is mass and V is volume.
