9.57 mol.

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the no. of moles of a solute per 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of solute) / (V of the solution (L)).

∴ M = (no. of moles of sucrose) / (V of the solution (L)).

1.1 M = (no. of moles of sucrose) / (8.7 L).

∴ no. of moles of sucrose = (1.1 M) (8.7 L) = 9.57 mol.
