Answer:

0 moles of sucrose

5 moles of sucrase

5 moles of glucose

5 moles of fructose

Explanation:

Sucrase hydrolyses the glyosidic bond in a sucrose molecule to produce one glucose and one fructose, therefore;

Assuming all the sucrose has been hydrolysed in 10 minutes, you would have:

0 moles of sucrose

5 moles of sucrase

5 moles of glucose

5 moles of fructose
