please can you answer this question i will mark u brainlist
Answers
Mass of 14 C = 12 × 14 = 168 u
Mass of 18 H = 1 × 18 = 18 u
Mass of 2 N = 14 × 2 = 28 u
Mass of 5 O = 16 × 5 = 80 u
Hence, its total mass = 294 u
One atom of Carbon weighs : 12 × u
where 'u' is the unified mass which is equal to : 1.66 × 10⁻²⁴ grams
One atom of Hydrogen weighs : 1 × u
One atom of Nitrogen weighs : 14 × u
One atom of Oxygen weighs : 16 × u
Given the Molecular Formula for Aspartame : C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅
⇒ Each Aspartame contains 14 Carbons atoms of Weight : 14 × 12u
⇒ Each Aspartame contains 18 Hydrogen atoms of Weight : 18 × u
⇒ Each Aspartame contains 2 Nitrogen atoms of Weight : 2 × 14u
⇒ Each Aspartame contains 5 Oxygen atoms of Weight : 5 × 16u
⇒ Total Mass of One Molecule of Aspartame : (14 × 12u) + 18u + (2 × 14u) + (5 × 16u)
⇒ Total Mass of One Molecule of Aspartame : 168u + 18u + 28u + 80u = 294u
But unified mass 'u' = 1.66 × 10⁻²⁴ grams
⇒ Mass of One Molecule of Aspartame in grams = 294 × 1.66 × 10⁻²⁴ grams
⇒ Mass of One Molecule of Aspartame in grams = 4.88 × 10⁻²² grams
