4 gm of sucrose. Molar Mas of sucrose = 342 No. of mole of sucrose in 0.35 Lt. of 0.0334M answer = (0.35 * 0.0334) Mole = 0.01169 Mole for this reason, entire mass of sucrose = Moles * Molar mas = 0.01169 * 342 =4 gm(approx)

Sucrose not only ha a low molecular weight, it also has 8 -OH group on it, which give a lot of polarity and places for H2O molecule to attach throujh hydrojen bonding.
