2 moles of CaCO3 weigh the highest.
According to the mole concept, ⇒1 mole = molecular weight in gram.

 ⇒Molecular weight of C12H22O11 = 12×12+22×1+11×16
 = 342 g

Molecular weight of CO2 =12+2×16
= 44 g

Molecular weight of CaCO3=40+12+3×16
=100 g

Molecular weight of H2O=16+2×1
=18 g
 

Weight of a sample in gram = number of moles × molar mass 

Therefore for the give compounds the weight can be calculated as 
1) 0.2 moles of C12H22O11 ​​=0.2×342
=68.4 gm 

2) 2 moles of CO2=2×44
=88 gm 

3) 2 moles of CaCO3=2×100
=200 gm 

4) 10 moles of H2O=10×18
=180 gm 

Therefore, 2 moles of CaCO3​ weighs more than other compounds.
