Best Answer

The molecular weight of carbon is 12.0107 g/mol, or grams per molecule. This is calculated by dividing the total weight of the atom by the weight of all the Atomic Mass units and multiplying by 100.

What is molecular mass?

the relative molecular mass or molecular weight of a compound is the mass of a molecule of the compound relative to the mass of a carbon atom taken as exactly 12.


How many moles are in 56 grams of carbon monoxide?

moles = weight in grams / molecular weight = 56 / 28 = 2 moles


How many moles of carbon are there from the original sample of 11.0 grams of carbon dioxide and 4.50 grams of water with a combustion of 7.50 grams?

Look up the molecular weight of carbon dioxide in the periodic table. The formula for carbon dioxide is CO2, which means one atom of carbon and two atoms or oxygen per molecule of carbon dioxide. Carbon has molecular weight of 12. Oxygen molecular weight is 16. Total 12+16+16= 44 11 grams/44 grams/mole=0.25 moles of carbon The grams of water and combustion of 7.5 grams are totally irrelevant. They are only given to possibly confuse you.

What is the gram molecular weight of Sodium hydroxide if its molecular mass is 40 a.m.u?

The a.m.u. is defined as the fraction of 1/12 of an atom of the carbon-12 isotope. The value is pretty nearer to the mass of a hydrogen atom. Therefore, in every compound, the gram molecular weight is numerically equal to the molecular mass in atomic mass units. Therefore the gram molecular weight of NaOH is 40 g/mol.


If the atomic weight of carbon is twelve and the atomic weight of oxygen is sixteen the molecular weight of glucose is?

Glucose: C6 H12 O6 Carbon: 6 times 12 = 72 Hydrogen: 12 times 1 (actually 1.008) = 12 Oxygen: 6 times 16 = 96 All together that makes the molecular weight of Glucose is 180


What is the molecular mass of CH3CH2Cl?

The molecular weight of acetic acid (CH3CO2H) can be calculated from the component atomic weights of each of the atoms present in the molecule. In this particular example (C2H4O2) there are: 2 Carbon atoms with molecular weight of 12.01 = 24.02 4 Hydrogen atoms with molecular weight of 1.008 = 4.032 2 Oxygen atoms with molecular weight of 16.00 = 32.00 Therefore the total molecular weight of Acetic acid = 60.05 grams per mole


Is carbons anion bigger than fluorine?

The carbon anion, or carbanion, has a lone pair of unbound electrons that give the carbon ion a negative charge....thus being an anion. Being that electrons do not add to the molecular weight of the ion, carbanion would still have a molecular weight of 12 and fluorine of 19. This is assuming that you are referring to the normal isotopes of carbon and fluorine.
