What is the density of 25 mL, 0.10 M sucrose solution? I divided 342.18g (C12H22O11)/ 25mL. Did I do this correctly or no?

Sorry. You did it incorrectly.
You divided the mass of 1 mol of solid sucrose by 25 mL. You must divide the mass of 25 mL of the solution by 25 mL.
The density of anything is its mass divided by its volume.
Since we don't know the mass of 25ml of we cannot calculate its density from the information given.
