Answer:

386.66 g/mol  

Explanation:

To calculate the molar mass of a molecule, you add up the molar masses of its atoms.

Thus, for cholesterol. we get

27C = 27 × 12.011  =  324.297 g

46H = 46 ×   1.008 =    46.368

  1O =    1 × 15.999 =   15.999

                 TOTAL = 386.655  g

To two decimal places, the molar mass of cholesterol is 386.66 g/mol

Molar mass is defined as the mass of a chemical compound present in the grams in the mole of the compound or substance.

The molar mass of the cholesterol is 386.75 g/mol.

Cholesterol is defined as:

  • Cholesterol is a type of fat found in the human blood and cell membranes. It is a waxy substance and a high level of cholesterol in the blood increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

  • Molar mass can be calculated as the product of atomic and molas mass constant. The unit of molar mass is g/mol.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B.
