Calculate the molecular mass of a glucose $C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}$ molecule.
The molecular mass of glucose $(C_{6}H_{12}O_{6})$ is calculated by summing the atomic masses of all atoms present in the molecule.
$= 6 \times (12.011 \ u) + 12 \times (1.008 \ u) + 6 \times (16.00 \ u)$
$= 72.066 \ u + 12.096 \ u + 96.00 \ u$
$= 180.162 \ u$
$= 6 \times (12.011 \ u) + 12 \times (1.008 \ u) + 6 \times (16.00 \ u)$
$= 72.066 \ u + 12.096 \ u + 96.00 \ u$
$= 180.162 \ u$
