Chapter 10, Problem 59A
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The steps to calculate the molar mass of any compound needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction: From the structural formula of a compound, the molecular formula can be calculated by counting the number of atoms of different elements present in it. After knowing the number and type of atoms of the element present in the compound and their respective atomic masses, the molar mass of the molecule can be calculated.

Explanation of Solution

If the structural or molecular formula of any compound is given, the number of atoms of different elements present in the compound can be determined. Now, the molar mass is the sum of the atomic masses of atoms of all the elements present in the compound. Therefore, the following steps must be followed to calculate the molar mass of any compound:

  1. Count the number of atoms of different elements present in the given structural formula of a compound.
  2. Write the molecular formula.
  3. Check the atomic mass of the atom of each element present in the compound.
  4. Calculate molar mass by taking the sum of atomic masses of all the atoms of the element present in the compound.
