    Answer: they are the same.

    Explanation:

    1) Sucrose is a compound with chemical formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁

    2) That means that all molcules of sucrose will have the same kind of atoms in the same proportion, whic is to say same composition:

    12 atoms of C: 22 atoms of H: 11 atoms of O, per each molecule of sucrose.

    3) For this question you can rely in the definition of compound: a pure substance formed by the combination of two or more elements always in the same ratio (same composition).

    4) That also implies, that all the molecules of sucrose have the same properties.
