<center>2017 Massing A Specific Number of Sugar Molecules in a Sugar Flavor Drink</center> 
 
 
Everybody loves a sugar flavor drink like Kool-Aid. However, how many people realize that sugar in the drink is not a single molecule but a family of similar molecular compounds. What we think of as sugar (the solid stuff you put on your cereal) is really the molecular compound sucrose (not glucose). It has a chemical formula of C12H22O11 and basically is two units of glucose (of course minus the water, H2O since it is a dehydration reaction).

In this lab, you will be dealing with a solid sugar flavor drink additive and assuming it is sugar (sucrose).  From your know of sugar and knowledge of the mole concept, you will determine the mass of sucrose you need to weigh out a desired number of molecules (base unit or particle of a molecular compound)  of solid sugar flavor drink (we will call it sucrose from now on in the lab).  Once each group completes the calculation (and write it on this sheet of paper), each group will weigh out that specific amount of sucrose in a Zip Lock and hand it into your teacher.

Directions 
 
1) Using the space on back of this page, determine the mass of sucrose needed to weigh out for your desired moles of sucrose. 
 
2) After checking your answer with the teacher, obtain a Zip Lock plastic bag. 
 
3)With a permanent marker, write the following information on the bag (before massing). 
a) Group Name: 
b) Peoples name in Group 
c)Group Letter:# 
d)Mass of sucrose needed to get desired moles of sucrose
