Some One-mole Quantities
What is the molar mass of each of the following?
A. K2O
B. Al(OH)3
A. K2O 94.2 g/mole
2 mole K (39.1 g/mole) + 1 mole O (16.0 g/mole) 78.2 g + 16.0 g = 94.2 g
B. Al(OH)3 78.0 g/mole
1 mole Al (27.0 g/mole) + 3 mol O (16.0 g/mole) + 3 mol H (1.01 g/mole)
27.0 g + 48.0 g + 3.03 g = 78.0 g
Prozac, C17H18F3NO, is an antidepressant that inhibits the uptake of serotonin by the brain. What is the molar mass of Prozac?
1) 40.1 g/mole 2) 262 g/mole 3) 309 g/mole
Prozac, C17H18F3NO, is an antidepressant that inhibits the uptake of serotonin by the brain. What is the molar mass of Prozac?
3) 309 g/mole
17 C (12.0) + 18 H (1.01) + 3 F (19.0) + 1 N (14.0) + 1 O (16.0) =
204 + 18.2 + 57.0 + 14.0 + 16.0 = 309 g/mole
Molar mass conversion factors
