How To Prepare 0.1M Of Sucrose

To prepare a 0.1M sucrose, simply mix 0.1 moles of sucrose, which is equivalent to 34.2 grams, with enough deionized water to make 1 liter of solution. With a bit of preparation, you can prepare the solution using proper laboratory methods.

Step 1

Place a magnetic stir bar into a glass beaker on a magnetic stirrer.

Step 2

Weigh out 32.4 g of sucrose into the beaker. This is equivalent to 0.1 moles.

Step 3

Pour 500 mL of deionized water into the beaker.

Step 4

Turn on the magnetic stirrer and allow the solution to mix until all of the sucrose is dissolved.

Step 5

Pour the solution into a 1-liter graduated cylinder, retaining the stir bar in the beaker.

Step 6

Fill the graduated cylinder to the 1-liter mark with the remaining deionized water.

Step 7

Pour the solution back into the beaker containing the stir bar and place on the magnetic stirrer for one minute to thoroughly mix.

Step 8

Pour the sucrose solution into a 1-liter bottle for storage, retaining the magnetic stir bar in the beaker.
