Calculate the molar mass of CaCOH.
Answers
Explanation:
Molar mass of CaCOH: 69.0957 g/mol
Further explanation
The elements in nature have several types of isotopes
Isotopes are atoms whose atomic number has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.
So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)
Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes
In determining the mass of an atom, as a standard is the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom whose mass is 12 amu
So the atomic mass is obtained is the mass of the atom relative to the 12th carbon atom
Atomic mass X = isotope mass 1.% + isotope mass 2.%
An atomic mass unit = amu is a relative atomic mass of 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
The 'amu' unit has now been replaced with a unit of 'u' only
In stochiometry therein includes
Relative atomic mass (Ar) and relative molecular mass / molar mass (M)
So the molar mass of a compound is given by the sum of the relative atomic mass of Ar
Atomic weight (Ar) of
Ca: 40.078 g/mol
C : 12.0107 g/mol
O : 15.999 g/mol
H : 1.008 g/mol
molar mass of CaCOH
molar mass = Ar Ca + Ar C + Ar O + Ar H
Atomic mass of Ca=40u
Atomic mass of C=12u
Molar mass of OH =17u
So 40u+17u+12u=69 u
