Chapter 6 Problem 32QP

Question

Calculate the molar mass for each of the following:a. FeSO4 (iron supplement)b. Al2O3 (absorbent and abrasive)c. C7H5NO3S (saccharin)d. C3H8O (rubbing alcohol)e. (NH4)2CO3 (baking powder)f. Zn(C2H3O2)2 (dietary supplement)

Solution

Solution 32 QPHere we have to calculate the molar mass for each of the following.Step-1a. FeSO4 (iron supplement)Atomic weight of Fe = 55.84 g Atomic weight of S = 32.06 g Atomic weight of O = 15.999 g , 4 moles of O is present, thus 15.999 4 = 63.996 gThe molar mass =55.84 + 32.06 + 63.996 = 151.896 gHence the molar mass is found to be 151.896 g.Step-2b. Al2O3 (absorbent and abrasive)Atomic weight of Al = 26.98 g, 2 moles of Al = 26.98 2 = 53.96 gAtomic weight of O = 16 g , 3 moles of O i.e 163 = 48 gMolar mass can be calculated as = 53.96 + 48 = 101.96 gThus the molar mass of Al2O3 is found to be 101.96 g.Step-3c. C7H5NO3S (saccharin)Atomic weight of C
