259 You can get any of these numbers for yourself from a molecular mass calculator on the web – I used http://www.convertunits.com/molarmass/
The precise numbers are 342.29648 g/mol for a disaccharide, 18.01528 g/mol for water and 180.15588 g/mol for a monosaccharide and 162.1406 g/mol for a polysaccharide – but I didn’t want to put people off with decimals.
