the cost of table salt and table sugar is Rs 10 per kg and Rs40 per kg respectively calculate thier cost per mole.
The cost of table salt and table sugar is Rs 10 per kg and Rs 40 per kg respectively calculate theIr cost per mole.
Table Salt = NaCl
Molar Mass of NaCl
= 23 + 35.5 g
= 58.5 g mol-1
No. of moles in 1 kg
= 1000 g /58.5g
= 17.09 moles
Cost per mole
= Rs 10 / 17.09 mol
= Rs 0.585 per mole
Table Sugar = Sucrose
Molar mass of C12H22O11
= 144 + 22 + 176
= 342 g/mol
No. of moles in 1 kg
= 1000 g/342 g/mol
= 2.92 moles
Cost per mole
= Rs 40 / 2.92 mol
= Rs 13.70 per mole
