Chapter 2, Problem 27RA
Summary Introduction
To review:-
The molecular weight of water (H2O) and glucose (C6H12O6)
Introduction:
Molecular weight or molar mass is the total mass of a molecule. Molar mass does not depend on the size of the molecule of any sample and is an intensive property of the substance. The International System of Units (SI) of molar mass is kg/mol (kilogram per mole) but it is generally represented in g/mol (gram per mole).

Elemental analysis of a compound with molar mass 342.3 g/mol gives the following mass percent composition: C 42.11%, H 6.48%, O 51.41%. Find the molecular formula of the compound.
Enter your answer in the space below using the following format: if the molecular formula of a compound containing elements X, Y, and Z is X2YZ3 enter your answer as X2YZ3.
According to chemist John Dalton, if one mole of nitrogen is combined with three moles of hydrogen to form one mole of ammonia (knowing that nitrogen, with an atomic number of 7, has an atomic mass of 14, and hydrogen, with an atomic number of 1, has an atomic mass of 1), then this compound will have an atomic weight (or molecular mass) of:
14 grams per mole (14 daltons)
17 grams per mole (17 daltons)
20 grams per mole (20 daltons)
22 grams per mole (22 daltons)
43 grams per mole (43 daltons)
