Mark it as brilliant plz it motivates me
Given : Atomic mass of Hydrogen, H = 1gm
Atomic mass of carbon, C = 12gm
Atomic mass of oxygen, O = 16gm
To Find: Molar mass of H₂O= M₁
Molar mass of CO₂= M₂
Molar mass of CH₄ = M₃
Solution:
To calculate molar mass formula used -
Molar mass = molecular mass/ number of moles= g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O (M₁) :
M₁ = Molecular mass of H₂O(m₁) / number of moles of H₂O(n₁)
Here, m₁ = 1+1+16 = 18g and n₁ = 1 mol
M₁ = 18/1
= 18 g/mol
Molar mass of CO₂ (M₂):
M₂ = Molecular mass of CO₂( m₂) / number of moles of CO₂(n₂)
Here, m₂ = 12+16+16 = g, and n₂= 1 mol
M₂ = 44 /1
= 44g/mol
Molar mass of CH₄(M₃):
M₃ = Molecular mass of CH₄( m₃) / number of moles of CH₄ (n₃)
Here, m₃ = 12+1+1+1+1 = 16g, and n₃ = 1 mol
M₃ = 16 /1
= 16g/mol
Hence, M₁ = 18 g/mol
M₂ = 44 g/mol
M₃ = 16 g/mol
